Description

For over forty years, Jurgen Schilling has been drawing the landscapes of southern France. This retrospective of his work showcases the artist's unique approach to capturing the natural world.

Accompanied by art historian Wilhelm Schlink, who has chronicled Schilling's career from its inception, this book offers a lively account of the artist's methods and reflections on landscape representation. Drawing inspiration from the rough countryside between the Mediterranean and the Corbieres, Schilling uses raw materials found on location to create an oeuvre driven by a desire to do justice to events and experiences.

First exhibited in Carcassonne in 2012, this retrospective provides a unique insight into Schilling's artistic vision and his place within the broader field of landscape representation. The book features over 200 pages of Schilling's drawings, offering a fascinating glimpse into the artist's creative process.
