Description

For the Hamburg artist Sylvia Schramm, Hamburg is at the center of world events – very much in the spirit of her husband’s grandfather. The historian Percy Ernst Schramm wrote the Hamburg book “Hamburg, Germany and the World” in the post-war years and gave back to the Hanseatic citizens the pride necessary for the reconstruction of their war-torn city.

The artist also has a very personal relationship with each of the sights she depicts. For example, the architecture office of her father-in-law, Jost Schramm (Schramm, Pempelfort, v. Bassewitz, Huperts), who died in 2001, built the Congress Center and Plaza Hotel in Hamburg.

Technique

Schramms artistic technique is digital painting, which she has developed into something unique with the knowledge gained from painting. The motif is printed onto a metal plate by means of a special, complex process, whereby a Coexistence between substrate and paint is created. The interplay between matt and shine makes the viewer literally feel the material and figurative and characterizes her impressive unique pieces. Symbolically, in order to preserve the ephemeral, this work was “weightily” framed in industrial iron.

Suspension:
Gallery rail + steel cables + metal hook (hang in the frame hook) or: Use dowels.
