  • I have always been a sucker for the look of prints and have often faked that look in my paintings, so maybe it makes sense that I am using printing techniques now in the same way that I paint, so that one cannot follow the steps.

    - Charline von Heyl

  • [Charline von Heyl is] a ferocious shape-maker and a pirate of the color black: black stripes, black smears, hard- edged black shapes, black charcoal lines and marks, black cutouts, negative shapes dropped out of black, black stars, arrows and darts; [...] Black, black, black – the element that gives the painting a feeling of confidence, authority, of being ‘resolved.‘ [...] They make all of the other elements in the painting [...] cohere, and they give the paintings its attitude of fearlessness.

    - David Salle

    Charline von Heyl
    Untitled, 2008
    Set of 9 works
    Acrylic paint, charcoal, collage, gouache, ink, wax, silkscreen, spraypaint, woodcut on paper and mylar
    Paper (each): 76.5 x 56.2 cm / 30 x 22 inches
    Framed (each): 82.3 x 62 cm / 32.4 x 24.5 inches
  • Charline von Heyl approaches printmaking by layering different techniques in unconventional ways, combining for example silkscreen, relief printing and woodcut, as well as integrating further media such as wax and spray paint. This 9-part series exemplifies the wide range of effects which the artist superimposes to create her inventive compositions.
