Caroline von Grone

Baumpaare (pairs of trees)
In the paintings of Caroline von Grone, trees appear like actors on stage and come to a life all their own. The powerful lines and the partly motivically dissolved colors create an unexpected aura, reminiscent of nature cult legends and myths, which seem to tell of hidden life in nature. The trees sometimes seem like a closely entwined couple, rooted in place, unable to free themselves from their precarious position.
