Everything Flows. Painting

With Essays by R. Hirner, J. Holzmann, and J. Schilling
A representative of Germany’s “Junge Wilde,” or Wild Youth, movement, Bernd Zimmer has developed an unmistakable style characterized by a combination of abstract painting and representationalism. His oeuvre, shaped by his profound experience with nature and the world, reflects a broad spectrum of subjects, from the waterfalls, shore scenes, and dense vegetation of his Cosmos paintings to the freely floating light reflexes in his most recent series, Swimming Light.
           
Published to accompany exhibitions at the Kunstmuseum Heidenheim in Germany and the Museum Angerlehner in Austria, Everything Flows is the first catalog to spotlight the paintings of the Swimming Light series. Accompanying essays by R. Hirner, J. Holzmann, and J. Schilling examine how the flowing transitions among the Swimming Light paintings give expression to their internal coherence, creating an eventful implementation of natural events and perception. Featuring eighty-five full-color illustrations, Everything Flows provides not only a comprehensive overview of these stunning paintings, but also a valuable look at the work of this important German artist.
