Gallery Strenger is pleased to present the second solo exhibition with Silke Shoener “White Space” following last yearʼs exhibition in February. Silke Schoener, a female painter from Kassel, Germany has been taken an active role in Europe especially in Germany but recently expanded it internationally. Dillon Gallery in New York also represented her second exhibition with favorable result in May 2009. We will be featuring about ten paintings of brand-new deep green landscape of Europe. Schoener depicts landscape, people, and the buildings on a big white canvas delicately and beautifully by superior description technique. All visible things are not drawn on the canvas but what remains in her heart, and the thing which does not remain are sorted out. If this white space is her spiritual sanctuary, it is also the space which is not visible unless we open up our inner eyes. In the last exhibition, "Sleeping Beauty", was represented with a mysterious outlook on the world which drifted between the reality and non-reality by the pursuit thorough realism expression. However, as her own work approached surrealism gradually, she started to sence incompatibility and this was not the way she hoped it would be. Then the description part of the reality arranged in an orderly manner had been arranged more in full scale ever. She believes that she is able to show her spiritualism with this original painting method and began to show new development. * The text provided by Gallery Strenger.
