Julian Der Maler Oder Die Traüme Über Traümen Ums Glück
A monumental figurative composition rendered in Lüpertz's characteristically bold and gestural brushwork, this painting presents a fragmented, mythic figure bathed in rich, densely layered paint that oscillates between representation and abstraction. The surface churns with earthy tones punctuated by vivid passages of color, evoking a dreamlike psychological intensity that aligns with the work's poetic title referencing dreams and happiness. True to Lüpertz's neo-expressionist vision, the painting merges classical allusion with raw painterly energy, asserting the heroic and existential power of the artist's act of creation.
