Rut Fischer-Stege

Bright, airy colour interpretation in the FabrikGalerie

09.04.2003 - 30.06.2003

Colourful oil and acrylic paintings by the artist Rut Fischer-Stege – who lives in Schollbrunn – have been on display to visitors at the LAUDA FabrikGalerie since the beginning of April. Rut Fischer-Stege was born in Darmstadt in 1940. Following her studies in music in Kassel, she studied painting and graphic arts at the Offenburg School of Design from 1968 to 1973. Initially involved in various activities such as graphic design, advertising, publishing graphics and illustration, she eventually wound up in expressive painting. The artist is a member of the Berufsverband Bildender Künstlerinnen und Künstler (Federal Association of Artists of the Fine Arts) in Frankfurt and of ”Das Rad” (”The Wheel”), an association of Christian artists. Since then, she has successfully presented her works to the public in many towns and cities both at home and abroad. Many of her works are now publicly and privately owned, or owned by the church. Her exhibited works cover the area of conflict from ”Conflict and cooperation, between ratio and emotion”. If on one hand, it is the gestural flowing of the paint, on the other hand it is the structural, the calculated area element as well as the consciously-used line. Mixed technique, collages and aquarelle-type values of expression are all elements included in her acrylic painting. The multitude of flower designs – which she sees as the symbol of life – contained in contrasting graphic areas of colour, give an exciting overall result. The exhibited compositions of paintings give the observer the feeling that a new way of effectively staging contrasts has been born. Metallic shining gold and silver elements, vibrant red and bright yellow bring out the main features in dominating blue and green areas. Acrylic paint is sometimes applied thickly and pasty, sometimes ”diluted” and alienated down to ”aquarelle paint”. A positive and colourful colour interpretation comes over in almost all of her works, making her work unique. The colourful exhibition, designed for the spring, is open to the art-going public during business hours until the end of May.
