ART NEEDS ITS TIME
The “Das Wie am Was - Art Concept” (The How of the What) of the Droege Group is an integral part of our business philosophy. The maxim of our company group has been enhanced by our post “The Art of Implementation”. Art encourages seeing, sharpens the perceptual capacity and provides us with a variety of suggestions which we use in our day to day business. It is both a creative inspiration and media.
In 2015, a new video series "Das Wie am Was | film edition" was added to our art concept. In this series, artists give an insight into their work and interpret our specific art rules.
Tim Eitel is one of the representatives of the so-called New Leipzig School, Germany. He was born in 1971 in Leonberg, Germany, and began with a degree in painting at the Academy of Visual Arts in Leipzig in 1997. From 2001 to 2003 he was a master student of Arno Rink. After having lived in Los Angeles, New York and Berlin he now lives and works in Paris.
In his work he strictly reduces his motifs to the bare minimum. Narration in his paintings is often avoided. He himself calls his artistic approach ‘Photoshop on the canvas’. Indeed, photographs and clippings of photographs serve as the starting material for his paintings. During the painting process these clippings are transferred onto the canvas, assembled and gradually reduced. In his works, the artist has discovered darkness. This darkness alienates objects and figures, making them less visible and establishing a distance to the viewer. Only after some time does the viewer begin to see everything clearly. Then, according to the artist, two worlds meet: the world of the ideal and abstraction and the world of perception.
