{"product_id":"christian-thoelke-heartland","title":"Christian Thoelke – Heartland","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe painting of Christian Thoelke - with what are in some cases extremely large formats, upon which can be seen human domiciles and infrastructures in a desolate and decrepit condition or at moments of acute menace - constitutes a contemporary position whose contents are quite explosive. The theme of these pictures is the loss of the present, of a feeling of security, of rootedness in the reliable and familiar; they investigate the question as to whether nature is still available as a place of refuge. Although the creative output of Christian Thoelke is not induced by any agitational motivation, his works evince a day-by-day topicality with regard to current conflicts in Europe and elsewhere in the world.\u003cbr\u003e- Katrin Arrieta\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eChristian Thoelke speaks of “symbols” when he talks about the act of painting: “It is a matter of finding a picture that allows you to tell a certain story.” Painting is a part of remembering. Digging for what lies buried brings to light peculiar and fascinating pictures.\u003cbr\u003e- Kito Nedo\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VFMK Boutique","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58769721852288,"sku":null,"price":26.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0975\/2726\/7712\/files\/VFMK_Christian-Thoelke_Heartland_COVER.webp?v=1790109851","url":"https:\/\/www.vfmk.org\/products\/christian-thoelke-heartland","provider":"VFMK Boutique","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
