The evolution of the work of Ludwig Ries

People with extraordinary abilities are always admired, especially professional artists and designers.
  I met the talented artist, a native of Ukraine, a graduate of the art institute in Lviv, which is now called the Art Academy, Ludwig Reis on the eve of his exhibition, which will take place on April 20, 21 and 27 at the American gallery Art on the Terrace in Staten Island. He showed and talked about his paintings and works of applied art, from which you couldn’t take your eyes off.
His canvases have previously attracted the attention of experienced specialists and inexperienced art lovers since his institute days, and his original stylish designs of houses, apartments and offices are prestigious in Ukraine today.
A true master constantly strives for perfection. His work stands on the same foundation, but under the influence of new circumstances it undergoes evolutionary changes.
Interesting works in the style of philosophical conceptualism were presented to the discerning public by the professional artist Ludwig Reis, and earlier he, a serious professional in art, painted portraits and landscapes, which are in private collections in the USA and various countries.
In his work, he is currently experimenting with various materials and paints, finding new opportunities to realize his creative ideas. Without ceasing to paint in an interesting manner, creating a new “art that moves with the times, in constant motion”, in which he strives to achieve complete freedom and expression, transferring the matured image onto the canvas, as if from the mysterious world of dreams, visions and romantic desires . American trends in his work have recently been very impressive. A bright personality, and his easily recognizable individual painting style is based on the desire to comprehend the deepest meaning of all things. His paintings are colorful; they shower the viewer with a rich spectrum of colors and shades, in amazing harmony.
For example, his painting “The Naked King”, “Bad Taste”, made of ceramics, or “Duck from the Hospital” inlaid with gold and semi-natural stones - something bright and impressive.
The essence of his work is not in the arrangement of figures and spots of paint, but in the thoughts and feelings that he put into his work. When conceiving the plot of a future work, he sets a goal not only to express his vision of the world, but, most importantly, to make the viewer think.
Recognition of his skill in the increasingly popular technique of using unusual materials for making works of art was the purchase of his works by collectors who have a good understanding of art. The famous American art gallery Art on the Terrace in Staten Island learned about his work and invited him to join a group of professional artists and designers to make exhibitions of paintings interesting, colorful and varied.
