Matthias Weischer: Kunstpreis der Leipziger Volkszeitung

Weischer's works oscillate between abstract and figurative painting. Until 2006, his paintings depicted deserted interiors like stage settings that are infused by abstract elements. Furniture, everyday objects and large-scale ornaments stylistically refer to the 1950s and 1960s. In their collage-like appearance they establish a complex and ambiguous relationship.
