Julius Bissier - 28. April 65.g. 1965

[mybeingthere]

Julius Bissier, 1893-1965, a German painter and draughtsman. He registered at the Karlsruhe Academy of Fine Arts in 1914 but remained there for only a few months, preferring to work alone.

In 1927 he met the sinologist Ernst Grosse, who in introducing him to ancient Chinese thought enabled him to familiarize himself with a form of art completely outside the European tradition. In 1930 he began to make ink paintings, in the same year meeting in Paris with Constantin Brancusi, who taught him that art was rooted in meditation. Bissier then began to question the abstract painting he practised at the time, to such an extent that when a fire destroyed almost all his works in 1934 he started again from scratch and began to paint in a style influenced by Chinese monochrome ink paintings. From then on he concentrated on the technique of wash drawing in black India ink. Strongly influenced by Taoism, he combined spontaneity and mastery in a single gesture.

He lived quietly at Hagnau on Lake Constance, working in isolation, and would not exhibit his pictures under the Nazi regime. The monochrome ink paintings he executed throughout this period were seen by the public only after World War II, making his reputation. From 1950 he took part in many major international exhibitions, including Documenta in Kassel (1959) and the Venice Biennale in 1960. While continuing to work on paper, he also began to paint on panel from 1953 and from 1956 on canvas.

... Valenti moved to Tessin, to Ascona, and met Jean Arp, Ben Nicholson, Remo Rossi and Julius Bissier; the association with this group of artists led him to a gradual rethinking of his painting, researching the effects of color and space that led him to a phase of “informal lyrical abstraction “, in which the subjects of fantastic primitivism float and break up into triangles, trapezoids, diamonds, primordial symbols and enigmatic...

that’s how abstract collages of the last artistic production were created

  Fedeltà

Quanto tempo passò che non sedevo al pedale d’un albero fra l’erba come in questa domenica d’aprile. Salire a un colle e ritrovar le spighe alte sui prati e udir cantare un merlo son così cara meraviglia al cuore, ch’io ne rinasco a una lontana vita e incantato ritorna il mio pensiero com’era quando con ingenua fede della mia bianca…
