Introduction

The landscape seems to offer Anne Kern's painting everything. It is her subject, her fascination, her field of experimentation and her metaphor all in one. Man-made sandstone is her subject matter, the visually stunning nature of Saxon Switzerland her backdrop. Quarries, bizarre rock formations reflected in crystal-clear water, occasional traces of human life, an abandoned boat, a weathered hut, an old hydroelectric power station. The brushstrokes are broad, large linear strokes arrange and provide adequate support in the form of breaks, gaps and cracks. The colour palette does without The colour palette does without colouristic sensations. Blue, turquoise and grey as well as green, brown and ochre are finely tuned and contrasted with each other, modulated between light and dark. In the most recent paintings, expressionistic-looking, luminous colours appear. The compositions become more dynamic. The powerfully radiant images appear calm, almost silent. They exude something self- evident, unchangeable. Anne Kern has found a language for herself in which object and artistic medium merge into a new reality. She does not describe, she speaks of the essence of things. Understood in this way, she draws equally precious essences from her experience of nature and her understanding of painting: essences of time, essences of space, essences of light. Anne Kern's paintings are not about the depiction of reality, but about the essence of things.
