About

The pictures of Haci Sami Yaman are contrasty compositions of dots, strokes, lines and calligraphic elements, seemingly following certain rules that are not immediately comprehensible. They form patterns, structures and streams that are compellingly unique. The drawings are virtually vibrating and appear as though they are charged with different meanings and pulsating energies. At the same time, his pictures are reminiscent of aerial views or sketches by landscape architects. The dynamic configuration of the images is even more impressive when you know that Yaman, who has been working in the Atelier for a almost two years, is almost completely blind. He uses a special kind of acrylic pen for his work. When applying the paint, the artist is able to orient himself by pushing the pens forcefully or by tapping. With the effort he puts into his paintings, Yaman suggests underlying theories of energies, operating modes and other philosophical-technicalconstructions of thoughts. “He speaks of systems, switches, planets, of complexinteractions, of streams and electrification,” explains Paula Schmidt-Dudek, artisticdirector of the Open Atelier St. Hedwig. “His pictures are connections, pixelations, dataprocessing. He describes levels and areas, programming and amplifiers.”

Beatrice Guder’s works are studies of nature and landscapes. Her style of painting shifts between figuration and (presumed) abstraction. Her vibrantly colored motifs include plants, fields, mountains and flowers. Oftentimes they appear as abstract, pattern-like shapes: repetitive, systematic forms which are – if you look at the whole picture –concentrated to landscapes. Some pictures solely consist of sweeping strokes, lines and dots, which – in relation to the other elements – can always be identified with nature. You can find elements of so-called naïve painting; Beatrice Guder expresses beauty, joy and simplicity. After many years, the artist continues to work in the Atelier.
