Leipzig is a vibrant center for visual arts in Germany, where many artists live and work. Together, they make up the "Neue Leipziger Schule" (New Leipzig School of Art). Their creations combine figurative and abstract elements, emphasizing creativity and experimentation, always with a touch of originality. Behind each work lies a story, sometimes personal, sometimes puzzling, sometimes even fanciful.
Following the path of famous "Neue Leipziger Schule" artists such as Werner Tübke and Neo Rauch, young, committed, and promising artists are emerging. We are pleased to present one of them – friendly, original, productive, and certainly destined for a bright future: Gustav Sonntag.
"... For all its figurativeness, the painting is treated as painting, with the pictorial character and color highlighted as such. Even if most motifs are figurative, there are always enclaves, vacuoles... in which the image remains true to itself as painting... Gustav Sonntag has a good intuition for the unity of the underlying tone in a work, which should not be lost in the surface of a thousand interesting details..." (Christoph Tannert, art historian)
