Christina Seibold
Building bridges, making new perspectives possible.
Born on 30 March 1966 in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, the graphic artist Christina Seibold understands the pieces around her in close relation to her own emotions and synaesthetic perceptions as the core around which she weaves spherical worlds of experience and condenses them into lively, many-facetted art prints. The eye can wander and always discover something new.
With a close relationship to her own emotions and inspiring music, lively, many-faceted digital graphics are created that allow the eye to wander and continually discover something new.
Christina Seibold presents inner realities in her pictures that move her and express themselves in a new way within her.
Time and again, these works created with emotional power reveal „quotes“ from a concrete world of forms that Christina Seibold dissolves and changes in an extraordinarily subtle way. Such discernible contours and forms open up to the observer‘s eye as he or she becomes immersed in the depths of these energetic works. Then they disclose a fantastic inner world in which dynamic forces are at work.
A look at the art prints divulges their spontaneity and emotionality, as well as their inwardly directed contemplation or the vivid design of deep, ardent worlds of feelings. As a dynamic counteracting force, the exciting sweeps that the graphic artist blends into her works frequently have an effect in the exhibits.
For Christina Seibold, letting her graphics assume their form is a means for depicting the visual poetry that succeeds in lending soul to spaces. These fascinate the viewer in their density and abundance of expression but never make an overpowering impression.
Christina Seibold is a co-founder of the artist group ArSenu/Z11-Primo.
Here she created in collaboration with jewelry designers a unique visual work (Expression) fits into a piece of jewelry. The echo in professional circles and the audience was furious.

EGG-ART
The egg is the egg is the egg…
or
Did you ever know your egg?
An approaching attempt
EGG-ART signifies a ludicrous way to operate with the egg as a material basis to create digital graphics – but it is not quite sure in any moment whether I am doing something with the egg or the egg is doing something with me… In the first case, I am the creatress of EGG-ART, in the second one the egg itself is the focus of art. Anyway – all who perceive EGG-ART should make their own decision!
All in life develops between to be or not to be, between mystery and knowledge, between truth and non-perception, knowingly I don`t say lie. For me – all this is mirrored and reflected within the female mystery of the little egg. It gives to me the opportunity to play in a ludicrous way with the fantastic secrets of life and growing in life. For me it is a creative gift and a universal symbol of life and womanliness.

Udo A. Heinrich
A good eye for the right moment
The powerful play between light and colours is one of the central motifs in Udo A. Heinrich’s work – the painter who was born in the Lower Rhine area, however, doesn’t very much like to be in the spotlight himself. “That’s right”, confirms the virtuosic artist who crosses the border between Photographic Realism and New Objectivity. “It is my paintings that are supposed to speak to the people, not me as a person. This would only unnecessarily distract my art’s aficionados from my work.” And Heinrich only makes few exceptions in this respect. Merely when he donates paintings for charity and is, for example, involved with UNICEF, he cannot pull himself away from the interest of the general public and the media. “But in these cases it is OK, because after all it reminds people to do something for others as well”, ponders the artist who has been living in the countryside outside of Leipzig for several years now with his wife Alexandra. The picturesque landscape and the immediate proximity to the Saxon cultural metropolis of Leipzig prompted him to move at the time.
Original snapshots
In his youth already Heinrich received the Konrad Duden memorial prize for his first works in pen and Indian ink. Since then he has consequently widened his spectrum, has studied 20th century painters and today masters various painting techniques in watercolour, acrylic or oil with stylistic confidence and filigree precision. The spectrum of his affectionately chosen motifs reaches from landscapes, ocean scenes, animals and flowers to original snapshots of golfing, his favourite pastime. Not without reason did Heinrich for many years relocate his winter residence to Florida, the golfers’ Mekka. In addition, the proportions of light in the southernmost state of the US inspired him, as is documented by his paintings of the Everglades and other nature scenes.
Nowadays, Heinrich mostly spends the year’s cold months on the island of Gran Canaria – or to be more precise: in his winter-studio in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. The globetrotter, who on a regular basis also partakes in study trips to exotic places such as Mauritius, the Arabian Emirates or the Caribbean, was therefore able to open his literally international work to an ever growing circle of art lovers both in Germany and abroad. “As I’m continually exhibiting in galleries, smaller museums or golf clubs in Florida, Germany and on the Canary Isles, my paintings have generally become globetrotters themselves. Excluding those, of course, finding a new home through a buyer”, Heinrich jokes. And the interest is growing continuously. Especially his golf paintings meet with positive response – and not just among golf buffs.
Surprising light effects
Currently Heinrich is working on a new series of paintings called ‘Profiles and Connections’. Leading off is a side-face painting of German Chancellor Angela Merkel – the background also showing Katharina the Great. Dr Evelin Priebe, Fine Arts Scholar from Hamburg comments: “With his ‘Profiles and Connections’ Udo A. Heinrich wants to expose something characteristic, something essential of the person portrayed and take a stand. The nexus of (former) monarchs or their regalia and somebody portrayed is by all means prevalent in the history of painting. Thereby, claims to power were formulated and legitimised, the perception of the beholder was modulated.”
Already in his childhood did the enthralling contrast between light and shadow inspire Heinrich to do art. One catalyst was definitely the “Night Song” [original title: “Abendlied”] by German poet Matthias Claudius (1740-1815): “There it says ‘Do you see the moon standing there/ There is only half of it to see/ And yet it is round, and fair!’ That passage fascinated me, and back then I already understood that there is much more hidden behind many things than we can grasp at first sight”, says Heinrich. A direct expression of this philosophy are last but not least his macro presentations of flowers and blossoms: The fragmentary paintings – created as if the artist was holding a magnifying glass in his hand – require the beholder to take his time and to look even closer in order to capture the work as a whole. Powerful colours and surprising light effects are the dominant force here as well.
To put it in a nutshell, Heinrich always demonstrates a good eye for the right moment: May it be a golf player seconds before the shot, the diffuse half-light during a sunset on Gran Canaria or the lurking gaze of a Florida panther hiding on a tree – Heinrich always “catches” his motifs in a key moment.
