Umberto Eco speaks of the interplay of the viewer and the creator in his book on On Beauty. Some form of emotional exchange or action/reaction is needed for something to raise itself from being an object to becoming more art one could argue. With the more passion an artist puts into his works, does it generate more feelings in the beholder? I had this 100x80 piece framed as it is special to me; done at a special point in my life. It is a bit of a cut out of something bigger, like we all are in the bigger flow that is humanity. I also enjoy the intricate play of cold and warm colours in this one. I had it framed at Boesner in Frankfurt, where the staff is extremely supportive and helpful. Here a large study "cut out" of an excellent BD by Rosinski & van Hamme - Thorgal.
