Gotthard Graubner was a German painter renowned for his contributions to abstract art, particularly his exploration of color and space. Graubner is best known for his “skin pictures,” where he used thick layers of paint to create a textured, almost sculptural surface, which explores the emotional and spiritual qualities of color. His work is rooted in the European abstract tradition, influenced by artists like Barnett Newman and Mark Rothko, but with a unique approach to materiality and form. Graubner’s meditative use of color and texture evokes deep emotional responses, inviting the viewer into a space of quiet contemplation.
