Rainer Fetting *
(born in Wilhelmshaven in 1941)
Shamir Sitting, 1989, signed, titled and dated on the reverse, oil on canvas, 170 x 140 cm, framed
Provenance:
European Private Collection (acquired from the artist)
For decades, it was impossible for German artists to paint figuratively, especially nudes, because the style was still identified with Nazi aesthetics. [..] But I always loved Van Gogh, Cézanne, Picasso, and I felt there was a discontinuity of this sensitivity in painting.
