Bernd Koberling: Stony Road (Steiniger Weg)

The painter Bernd Koberling, who lives in Berlin, first began to work in watercolor 10 years ago in Iceland. That productive encounter with the harsh solitude of the North--to which he returns and where he continues to paint--has left its mark on this substantial and growing portion of his oeuvre. This single summer season's worth of bright, pulsating abstract work was all created between August and October 2004 in remote Lodmundarfj dur.
