„Im Wind“ (In the Wind) shows a solitary figure on a rocky rise before a wide, dramatically clouded twilight sky. In earthy, cool tones and vigorous brushwork, Ruprecht von Kaufmann conjures a romantically charged, almost sublime mood of solitude and the force of nature. Characteristically, he works in oil on linoleum mounted on wood – a technique in which painterly surface and incised line meet, lending the narrative scene a peculiar materiality.
About the Artist Ruprecht von Kaufmann
Ruprecht von Kaufmann (b. 1974 in Munich) paints mainly in oil on linoleum — a material into which he simultaneously cuts with a lino knife. His pictures show figures, interiors and landscapes in often surreally charged, narrative settings. Von Kaufmann studied illustration at the Art Center College of Design in Los Angeles and lived for several years in Los Angeles and New York before settling in Berlin in 2003. He gained international recognition for his figurative work; pieces by him are held in the collection of the German Bundestag, as well as in numerous international private collections.
