André Butzer — Gruss aus Pomm-Pomm
André Butzer

Gruss aus Pomm-Pomm

A turbulent, otherworldly landscape rendered in Butzer's signature style of urgent, expressive brushwork, with volcanic hues of red, orange, and yellow colliding against darker tones to evoke both cosmic unease and childlike fantasy. The composition pulses with raw energy, blending abstraction and figuration in a way that references German Expressionism while maintaining a distinctly contemporary sensibility. The painted wood artist's frame extends the work's visual language beyond the canvas, reinforcing Butzer's approach to the painting as a total, unified object.
