Intuition and a desire to express things that cannot be described with mere words is the drive behind the work of celebrated German painter Eckart Hahn. A master of his medium, Hahn creates compositions of texture and form that are more like paintings of sculptures than anything else.

A constant play between opposite polarities, Hahn’s work oozes a certain discomfort, but not without good reason: his paintings are meant to reflect the unanswered questions and unresolved contradictions that are inevitably part of human life.
