Katharina Lehmann uses the unique Thread-Drip Painting technique to create her sculptural pieces. Countless threads intersect and intertwine to form a network, an organic environment, infusing the monochrome, hardened acrylic landscape with life and movement. The idiosyncratic artworks transcend the two-dimensional nature of the canvas; the chaos of tangled, layered threads becomes an entity, taking shape to create a unique piece of art, as it begins to adapt to its territory, growing into existence in a mythical space between painting and sculpture. Creativity and technical craftsmanship create the ‘entity’, which is then free to be interpreted from every angle and perspective: to be freely experienced as art. Perhaps you see a shadowy mountain landscape, maybe a crumpled sheet or a cleverly woven web, - the inimitable magic of Katharina Lehmann’s artwork lies in the constant fluidity of the image. The visual ambiguity prevents the observer from drawing conclusions, inviting them to explore the facets of life and nature.18.05.1984 - born in Western Siberia, RussiaNationality: Russian and German (dual citizenship)Lives and works in Munich, Germany2003 - 2006 - Designschule München (Munich School of Design) - Commercial and Communication Design,specialising in Graphic and Media Design2005 - Hyvinkää School of Art - Fine Arts, Photography, Graphic Design, FinlandCollections & Museums 2• galerie m beck, Homburg, Germany• Art Museum Humboldt-Schloss, Hettstedt, GermanyGrants & Prizes2019 / 2020 - Artist in Residency programme at Swatch Art Peace Hotel, Shanghai, China (6 months)2018 - Nominated for BLOOOM Award by WARSTEINER, Cologne, Germany2018 - Big Awards, Barcelona International Gallery Awards, Spain2017 - Marialuisa Sponga Award, Como, ItalyExhibitions (selection)2019• Art Karlsruhe, galerie m beck, Karlsruhe, Germany2018• studio exhibition, Atelierhaus Engl, Munich, Germany• Pictures in the Dark, galerie m beck, Homburg, Germany• Der See und wir, Kulturforum „Blaues Haus“, Diessen, Germany• Discovery Art Fair Frankfurt, galerie m beck, Frankfurt, Germany• C.A.R. – Contemporary Art Ruhr, Gallery Marco Antonio Patrizio, Essen, Germany• Spurensuche³, Kulturforum „Blaues Haus“, Diessen, Germany• Art Salzburg, galerie m beck, Salzburg, Austria• Art Market Budapest, galerie m beck, Budapest, Hungary• MOMENTUM, Art & Space Gallery, Florence, Italy• BIG Awards, CAGE Gallery, Barcelona, Spain• Numbers and Figures and Letters, galerie m beck, Homburg, Germany• Seemingly Save Universe, galerie m beck, Homburg, Germany (solo show)• Living in Between Dimensions, Gallery Benjamin Eck, Munich, Germany• Miniartextil, Museo del Tessile, Busto Arsizio, Italy• 6 years studio Engl - annual studio exhibition, Atelierhaus Engl, Munich, Germany• Abstract, Gallery Benjamin Eck, Munich, Germany• artig Art Prize, Kunstreich Gallery, Kempten, Germany• Arte Vicenza, Gallery Marco Antonio Patrizio, Vicenza, Italy• Miniartextil, Château du Val Fleury, Gif-sur-Yvette, France• Arte Genova, Gallery Marco Antonio Patrizio, Genoa, Italy• Borderline - 14th edition of Miniartextil, Le Beffroi de Montr ouge, Paris, France2017• Luxembourg Art Fair, galerie m beck, Luxembourg• Borderline - 27th edition of Miniartextil, ARTE & ARTE, Como, Italy• Sotheby‘s Benefit Art Auction in favour CS Hospiz Rennweg, Nov omatic Forum, Vienna, Austria• 24.
