FRAGMENT I 2009 OIL ON CANVAS 78,7 x 63 inches
PRESS At the center of SEBASTIAN SCHRADER’S work is always the isolated, contemplative individual. Near life-sized figures occupy the foreground of his canvases in a usually ambiguous space, in various poses and situations, in the tension-filled space between the pause and reconsideration. Both the background of the scene and the object of the person’s musing remains a mystery. In a subtle way, the various attributes awaken conjure various associations while consciously allowing space for a number of different truths and interpretive possibilities. Schrader associates his work with an ongoing philosophical-psychological investigation of familiar myths and histories. By referring to art historical motifs and subjects with the gesture of painterly perfection, he reflects on the contemporary role of the artist and painting as well as current issues.
