L'ASCESA

L'ASCESA

Painting, Abstract informal, Acrylic, 35x50x2cm
Second painting by Andreas McMüller, with a technique is completely different from the first. In fact, it is a successful experiment, which will soon have bigger brothers and sisters, which makes it the first work in its category.

Category that is based on the wave technique, that is to distribute horizontal stripes of fluid color on the canvas, distributing (grinding) those higher for the whole canvas with a particular technique and then give the desired shape to the drawing, tilting the canvas in order to move the liquid color wave that has been created and moving it at will around the canvas. Much color is lost because it drips out of the canvas itself (with immediate economic displeasure for the artist), but if everything went as it should, what remains can have a considerable aesthetic value.

The conditional is a must, because with this technique the artist does not have complete control of the distribution of colors on the canvas and to achieve good results requires considerable organization, planning and careful preparation of the work. 

In the work The Ascent, a movement towards the top is revealed, consisting of several triangular shapes that start from the coldest and darkest colors at the bottom and reach the warm and light ones at the top, symbolizing an inner growth, an evolution that is thus suggested to the observer. The serenity intrinsic to the pastel colors of the upper part of the picture communicates peace and tranquility, reassuring those who climb about the usefulness and effectiveness of the fatigue inherent in this ascent. 

The Ascent thus becomes a part of Andreas McMüller’s series of motivational works.  The Rise is a work already catalogued and certified, also in the portal of the auction house Gigarte, Lucca (Italy).
