Schur's architectural aesthetics

Richard Schur has quickly become one of my favourite contemporary artists after I have seen his works the first time at Muenchen's ARS Agenda in 2009.  Thanks to C, I even got a chance to meet with the artist.  I was totally carried away by the architectural aesthetic of his paintings - juxtaposition of Miesian grids with vivid and neutral colour fields.

It is sad to see the closure of the ARS Agenda showroom in 2010.  I hope it will reopen soon in future.
