Peter Lang is one of the outstanding voices in contemporary landscape painting. With his unmistakable visual language, he explores the boundaries between abstraction and figuration and transforms sensual landscape experiences into highly complex, aesthetically striking works.

The exhibition Nur Licht presents Lang’s most recent works, which are characterized by his intensive exploration of light and space in Iceland. The artist’s shimmering views of nature, which depict neither mountains nor the sea in the conventional sense, but rather condense moods and movements, invite viewers on a journey into the essence of landscape. With finely nuanced color gradients, filigree line structures and a masterful use of light, Lang creates atmospheric pictorial spaces that oscillate between meditative stillness and untamed energy.

One element of Lang’s oeuvre is his work with linocuts. These colorful prints are characterized by pronounced hatchings, which are given a special dimension by the specific technique. These works combine the creative possibilities of printing and painting to create a unique visual language that conveys the landscape not only as a motif, but also as a haptic experience. The dynamic lines and structures of the linocuts open up a new level of seeing that makes both the energy of nature and its aesthetic order tangible.

Peter Lang describes his work as a constant challenge to translate the visual perception of landscape with the means of painting and graphics. Nur Licht shows this perseverance and joy of experimentation in a new depth and provides insights into the path of an artist who interprets landscape painting in a radically contemporary way.

Visitors can expect an exhibition that makes landscape comprehensible not just as a motif, but as a universal experience. Nur Licht is an invitation to experience the dialogue between light, color and space in a completely new way.
