Description of the Artwork “Linear landscape 20”
Jan Astner creates landscapes in his studio. They are inspired by numerous journeys. Every winter, the artist moves to Andalusia and travels regularly. On the Iberian Peninsula, he is fascinated by the sea and the mountains. During his trips to Andalusia, Cantabria and the Portuguese coast, he makes synthetic sketches of coasts, rocks and sky. Observing such a diverse nature was the inspiration and basis for creating Linear Landscapes. Astner is an artist whose imagination and the gift of landscape processing allow him to create unique compositions. Painter, draftsman and unconventional traveler. Sensitive not only to impersonal beauty. He creates in many different techniques. He experiments with painting techniques, creates his own painting tools, mixes media, and uses various materials in structural works. The power of the composition and contrasts of his monochrome landscapes, the dynamic way of drawing and the enriched texture create art that refers to old graphic techniques.
Artwork in the interior
Jan Astner, Poland
Jan Astner studied architecture and fine arts in Poland and the USA. He practices painting, drawing, computer graphics and photography. Recent projects come from the fascination of multi sensual perception. Paintings are elements of performances based on the idea of synesthetic metaphors – abstractly combined sensual experiences create individual feelings for each participant. He exhibited in Poland, France, Belgium, Luxemburg, Spain and Sweden. For 25 years he has been dealing with consultancy in the field of building and managing brand image. Lives and works in Izabelin, Poland and Jerez de la Frontera, Spain. Jan Astner realises his works in series that combine reflection on a man in relation to the world around him in the age of posthumanism and transhumanism. Using process painting and his own developed techniques in acrylic technology, he chooses the means of expression to present the issues bothering him.
