Claus Brunsmann's pictures have a feeling of free material and gestural abstraction. They transmit, with great energy and a particular aesthetic elegance, subjective emotional charge as well as images full of values linked to sublimated and distorted memories of nature. The quality of this painting emerges with greater clarity exactly when one looks at the various sequences of the pictures as a whole. In this way, one can appreciate the tonal variations, the sensibility of the apparently chaotic gestural movements, the spatial tension determined by skillful chromatic stratifications and the physical impact of the painted surfaces.
