I developed the series "A Hat Comes Around the Corner" in response to Joseph Beuys. I explore the Beuys before the "Beuys" and address the fascinating transformation of Joseph Beuys into the "Beuys" brand. Communication between artist and viewer was just as important to Beuys as the artist's creative process. He wanted to have an impact through image, word, and language. Through the design of the letters, I describe his work as a sculptor. The text… is handwritten with ink and a broad-nib pen.
Barbara Schwinges uses drawing, painting, and calligraphy; her artistic path was shaped by early work as a technical draftswoman and studies in visual communication. She combines technical rigor with the fluid, emotional language of calligraphy and often works without aids, directly from the moment. Her works, especially minimalist architectural drawings and calligraphic portraits, reveal emotional resonances and challenge the viewer to experience architecture and personality as a living presence. Her art conveys depth, thoughtfulness, and a subtle poetry of perception.
