Biography: Armin Mehling
Armin Mehling's work on paper is distinctly abstract, but the emotions the artist put into his work are very tangible. Mehling's work can best be described as a rhythmic play of lines, planes and arabesques. The way the German touched his brush for this work shows strong resemblance to the way calligraphers work.
Music plays an important role in the life and work of Armin Mehling. He learned to play the piano and violin at a young age. Another source of inspiration is undoubtedly his education at the University of Würzburg. The studies of philosophy, art history, chemistry and pharmacy form the basis of the almost mathematical way in which Mehling constructed his compositions.
Mehling paints what is stored in his memory in sounds, colours, shapes, lines and smells. For the enthusiast, this method creates a fascinating spectacle of colour planes, lines and signs. This work often comes about after periods of intense tension as a result of the traumatic war experiences from his youth. Armin Mehling's work can be found in museums in the Netherlands and Germany. It is also in private collections all over the world.
