    "In my art, I explore the balance between vibrant expression and minimalist simplicity. Whether through bold colors or subdued tones, each piece reflects a blend of introspection and assertiveness, mirroring the ebb and flow of inspiration." - Christina Gschwantner

    In her work, artist Christina Gschwantner combines contrasting art movements such as Art Informel and Minimal Art. She succeeds in depicting and creating her very own view of the world. A world that, surprisingly, makes the viewer feel that it is a part of themselves. Her rhythmic scenarios seem strangely familiar and appear to rise up from deep within the storehouses of consciousness. They create a feeling of well- being and joy, but also an interested, almost philosophical thoughtfulness.

  • "Each brushstroke is a step in an ongoing dialogue between personal experience and artistic expression, revealing layers of untold stories. Ultimately, my art celebrates the beauty of impermanence and the joy of discovery in life's unpredictability." - Christina Gschwantner

    Artist, Christina Gschwantner's (born 1975) current body of work is quintessentially abstract, derived from her previous occupation with painting her “stranger creatures, peculiar beings, and picturesque figures”. Colourful and eye-catching, vibrant and lively, Gschwantner’s characters inhabit the picture plane, claiming their surroundings for themselves or gathering in orderly groups.
