About Volker E.A.E Ruhland:
Volker Ruhland's oils clearly evoke the
spirit of Dali, yet they manage to do so
without looking like anything produced
by that surrealist master, as Ruhland's
compositional technique for figures and
particularly his color schemes are wholly
his own. Each of his canvases is awash
in a light yet dominant hue that grounds
the visual experience, from which
Ruhland builds his otherworldly imagery,
rich in detail and intrigue. Eyes often
figure prominently in his work, seemingly
pointing out to the viewer that there is
much to experience if one will take the
time to look.
If we do, we often see disorienting
imagery rendered with disarming
innocence, reminding us that the act of
beholding can be a pure pleasure.
Ruhland's passion for painting rose to
another level in the 1970s when he and
his brother converted an old wax factory
in their native Germany into an art
studio, where other artists could work
and exhibit. Today Ruhland remains as
focused as ever on his artistic pursuits,
while also enjoying the serenity af for
ded by his atelier on the greenbelt of
Mainz .
About Interpretative Realms- Alternate
realities and pseudo-universes are in
store for the visitors of Interpretive
Realms. Wild and energetic, this is an
impressive grouping, where one may
discover traces of the Fauves,
Surrealists, and other purveyors of the
avant-garde. These creative minds
convey the excitement and ingenuity of
early modern art in our contemporary
age. They have each developed highly
personal and inventive artistic language
that will enrich the imagination of
audiences.
