Bernd Lohaus

1971

Installation
Materials: oil paint on canvas

Collection: Estate Bernd Lohaus.

Bernd Lohaus trained as a sculptor, but nonetheless chose painting as a beloved activity.  Through his strategic use of colour, he investigated the spatiality of his pieces.  We may consider this series in the elemental colours of oxblood red, yolk-yellow and pigment-blue, more as conceptual art than as painting.  Lohaus's canvases are placed directly upon the ground; they do not have to be hung.  Their mere presence occupies the space, as it were.

About M HKA / Mission Statement

The M HKA is a museum for contemporary art, film and visual culture in its widest sense. It is an open place of encounter for art, artists and the public. The M HKA aspires to play a leading role in Flanders and to extend its international profile by building upon Antwerp's avant-garde tradition. The M HKA bridges the relationship between artistic questions and wider societal issues, between the international and the regional, artists and public, tradition and innovation, reflection and presentation. Central here is the museum's collection with its ongoing acquisitions, as well as related areas of management and research.
