Text zur Ausstellung

Joachim Hirling und Velin Dinev sind zwei Künstler mit ausgeprägter Individualität, mit unterschiedlicher künstlerischen Handschrift und Entwicklung.

Die gleichzeitige Präsentation im Rahmen der Ausstellung „Raum für Klangfarbtöne“ stellt die dynamische Begegnung des Tons, der Farbe und des Raums im Umfeld des visuellen Erlebnis dar.

Abstrakte Strukturen, Sättigung und Farbstärke (Velin Dinev), überlegte und wirkungsvolle plastische Expressionen (Joachim Hirling) kommunizieren miteinander und kreieren eine besondere Sensibilität und Vieldeutigkeit an Assoziationen und diametralen Emotionen. Der Tonraum in ihren Bildern drückt sich in einer philosophischen Wahrnehmung aus und eröffnet andere Dimensionen, wo sich die Kunst in ein inneres Erlebnis umwandelt.

Diana Draganova-Stier

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



Auch in dieser Ausstellung sind von Joachim Hirling Arbeiten zur Synästhesie von Klang und Bild zu sehen. Es sind neue Arbeiten die während meines Aufenthaltes hier in Sofia entstanden sind. Daneben zeigt er auch ältere Arbeiten die einen interessanten Bezug zu den aktuellen herstellen.

Die neuen Arbeiten von Joachim Hirling sind im wesentlichen Acrylbilder im Format 70 x 50 cm. Jedes Bild behandelt einen der 12 musikalischen Halbtonschritte der westlichen Musikeinteilung einer Oktave, alle zusammen ergeben einem spektralen Farbverlauf. Jeder Halbton variert in mehrern seiner Oktavschritte.

Die weiteren Arbeiten von Joachim Hirling entstanden in der Auseinandersetzung mit der chinesischen Kalligraphie und ihrer inneliegenden Qualität zur Improvisation, die somit auch ein musikalische klangfarbliche Note zeigen.

Velin Dinev ist ein vielfältiger Autor, der sich seit mehr als 40 Jahren mit Batik, Malerei und zahlreichen anderen Formen beschäftigt. Geboren im 1938 in der malerischen Stadt Nova Zagora, absolvierte Velin Dinev in den 70ern Jahren die Staatliche Kunstakademie in Sofia im Fach "Textil" bei Prof. Marin Varbanov.

Im Laufe der 80er Jahren konzentrierte er sich vorwiegend auf die Batik-Technik und präsentierte seine Werke in zahlreichen Einzelausstellungen in Sliven, Gabrovo und Sofia. Zu dieser Zeit nahm er an der Kunstbiennale in Erfurt teil. Im Laufe der folgenden Jahren nahm er an zahlreichen Ausstellungen in der Slovakei, Bukarest, Berlin, Budapest, Paris und London teil.

Im letzten Jahrzehnt inspirierte ihn die Acryl-Technik. Diese setze er in mehreren Einzelausstellungen in seinem Wohnort Sliven um. Er ist Mitglied im "Verband bulgarischer bildender Künstler" und unterrichtet zugleich am Kunstgymnasium "Dimitar Dobrovich" in Sliven. Seine Werke sind Bestandteil vieler Sammlungen in Deutschland, Frankreich, USA, England, Österreich, Russland und China.

Weitere Informationen zu Velin Dinev finden sie auch auf seiner Facebookseite Velin Dinev


Die gezeigten Arbeiten der beiden Künstler wurden von der Galerie "Der Rote Punkt" und der Kuratorin Diana Draganova-Stier / National Art Gallery Sofia ausgewählt und ergeben einen wunderbaren Dialog. Für die Übersetzungen aus der bulgarischen Sparach danken wir Maria Hirling

Iin an other photo You can see also 12 paintings from the ColorSound paintings. They all are also painted in January 2015 - acrylic on canvas - each one 40 x 40 cm.
Here You can see three singel half step notes in an different way painted then in the other paintings.
Further nine major chords, three of the chord paintings also show different ways to present them.

The second group at this photo are also made in Janury 2015, they are done with colored paper mash. This nine amorph circles are in diameter about 15 to 50 cm.
They also shows different kinds of chords or combinations of music notes.

The thrid photo show some works allready painted between December 1995 and late summer of 1997. They all are painted oil on canvas one is 41,5 x 41,5 cm,
all others are 24 x 33 cm. The ten small ones of them are painted in Taipei, in free improvisations inspired by study chinese calligraphy.

But how You like to see them all is in Your own heart. One painting of the exhbition from me is still missing, cause it is out of the anker of the photo,

Now I will show three ColorSound painting which represent three major chords.
They all are painted in January 2015 - acrylic on canvas - each one 40 x 40 cm. Here You can see three major chords, E-major, G-major & A-major.
They all show the color for the Prime, Terz and Quinte - E G# B - G B D - A C# E
- By the way this three cords also represent a typical Rock music progression like it is also in the song "Purple Haze" from Jimi Hendrix
- of course in Purple Haze it is an E7#9 the "Hendrix Chord"

For coding the colors to the music notes I use a frequenze based octaveing method. The coding is not dogmatic, I understand it like a language,
there are so many possibilities like you want, also the kind of painting, often I paint them as amorph circles with fractal dots or lines.

Now I will show three works, that I also show in my exhibition in Sofia at the gallery / Der Rote Punkt / The Red Point.
This works I allready painted between December 1995 and late summer of 1997. They all are painted oil on canvas,
one is 41,5 x 41,5 cm, it is inspired by nature patterns & patterns apeare with colsed eyes on concentrating to the inner colors,
all others are 24 x 33 cm. The two small ones of them are painted in Taiwan, in free improvisations inspired by study
chinese calligraphy. But how You like to see them all is in Your own heart.

This work I have allready painted in May of 1997 in Taiwan, in free improvisation inspired by study chinese calligraphy
- oil on canvas - 24 x 33 cm. But how You like to see it is in Your own heart.

 

This work I have allready painted in September of 1997 in Taiwan, in free improvisation inspired by study chinese calligraphy
- oil on canvas - 24 x 33 cm. But how You like to see it is in Your own heart.

 

The still missed work belongs in some way to the whole group of the 12 ColorSound paintings, like "the lucky 13th".
It is also painted in January 2015 - acrylic on canvas - 70 x 50 cm. In fact it is also an alternaive to the musical note "E"
but in a very grey kind of blue violett. In this way it is meand to the experiance we all have,
the feeling, low musical notes feels like dark, high musical notes let us feel like bright. In this way it is a represent of ColorsSound
"without" color, just with dark, middel and light grey color, further it also shows, that in my paintings,
the relation to the chinese calligraphy is still there, like You can see in some of the older paintings I presented above!
This is also the reason to combine this calligraphy paintings with the very new ones.

By the way, calligraphy, writing is an other exemple for the transformation from one medium to another medium
- from speech (audio) to 2 dimensional lines, (visual) - in another meaning is that, that calligraphy represents the traces
of the "dance" of the brush, which lead as again in some way to the music! ~ ~ ~

One other photo You can see, is one painting which shows an other possibility from from the single note "F" in red purple / magenta
- the one color which is not inside the rainbow colors, cause it is allready a mixed color between purple and red
from the edges of the rainbow spectrum. It is also painted in January 2015 - acrylic on canvas - 40 x 40 cm. That I painted it as an
amorph circle is related to the expereance of inner brain pitcures ~ ~ ~

The third photo shows again a ColorSound work I made in January 2015, it is done with colored paper mash.
This amorph circled sdots is in diameter about 40 cm. This one shows the E-major chord (E-G#-B) ~ ~ ~

 

Joachim Hirling - This ColorSound Painting represent the "E - Grey" - January 2015 - acrylic on canvas - 70 x 50 cm
