About the artist
Art is transported emotion
Figurative and abstract, realistic and surrealistic at the same time. Anyone who wants to describe Dieter Nusbaum's works faces a real challenge: they cannot be assigned to any subject. There is no pigeonhole into which one could put him. Nussbaum's art is unique, very personal, sometimes even private and highly innovative. His pictorial worlds, which are multi-layered in the truest sense of the word, are unfathomable, is how Dr. Jörg Bockow describes journalist and art critic Dieter Nusbaum.

Dieter NusbaumNusbaum's works invite us to linger and escape reality, if only briefly. His ideas and emotions emerge on the surface of consciousness and connect his art with something peculiar, something surreal, but true.
Nusbaum graduated from the Liege School of Art in 1999 and his work encompasses painting, graphics and sculpture. Born in Neuerburg in 1972, Nusbaum draws on a large repertoire of objects and ideas for his art, working with canvas and other materials, but the works themselves and the means and materials used also vary. Pictures on canvas or paper are created, but also boxes and objects, which are then shaped into new being.
The intense, often bright colours, the strong contrasts and the creative method are a common theme. Nusbaum begins with an irregular application of paint on the canvas and builds up layer by layer. This gives the works different levels and a palpable depth. Similarly, the objects are created in which the layers build up to a three-dimensional impression, sometimes reminiscent of a stage - on which very different stars such as portraits of women or squares can appear.Nusbaum's works are characterised by a strong creative urge, fed by an obvious passion and sense of purpose. His works can be found in numerous private and public collections as well as in public spaces as art on buildings.
