Cornelia Schleime

Cornelia Schleime (Born 1953) is active/lives in Germany.  Cornelia Schleime is known for Abstract, politcally symbolic portraits, installations with monumental canvases.

Cornelia Schleime has developed a recognizable, autonomous vocabulary with which she depicts the universe according to her own insights and standards. In 1984, five years before the fall of the Berlin wall, Cornelia Schleime came to the West. This move meant, however, that she had to leave all her work behind in East Germany.

During her first year in West Berlin she did not follow the international trends, such as performance or video, but did series of water colors, intuitive drawings and paintings – initially only for herself. Later came small installations with over painted photos or postcards and monumental canvases.

Cornelia Schleime has a preference for manipulating forms and playing with formats. At the end of the 1980s she enlarged the object itself in the manner of Pop Art. Now she zooms in on her models, like a television director. This approach produces monumental half- totals and close-ups, so that the viewers are extremely close to the subject.  <   ...  [Displaying 1000 of 1413 characters.]  Artist bio
