Herbert Warmuth
(*1960 in Schweinfurt, Germany; lives and works in Frankfurt am Main, Germany)
The artist Herbert Warmuth explores a post-minimalist, post-conceptual approach to painting. His practice encompasses a wide range of techniques, working on drawings, panel paintings, objects, and walls, extending even to the chromatic treatment of spaces and spatial contexts. Warmuth’s artistic exploration engages with existing notions of painting in the broadest sense, drawing inspiration from visual elements of everyday culture such as pharmaceutical packaging or flags. His work is guided by conceptual questions, yet these are developed and refined through practice, ensuring that each piece reaches its own unique, definitive resolution. Figurative, concrete, and abstract elements all become integral parts of his artistic language.
