REGINE SCHUMANN | Contemporary Istanbul

September 23–27: For over 30 years, Regine Schumann has been exploring the themes of light, color, and form as a visual artist, using the unique material of fluorescent acrylic glass. Vibrantly colored, fluid forms and installations—some of which span the entire space—made of acrylic glass envelop the room, saturate it with color, and lend its architecture a new warmth. Color and light, composition and intensity are central elements that characterize the artist’s work. In the tradition of constructive-concrete art, Regine Schumann has developed her own geometric formal language that articulates itself within the space and enters into a dynamic dialogue with light and color.

Schumann’s works allow the eye to wander into other dimensions; they create a connection between the purely physical nature of acrylic and the immaterial quality that arises from its encounter with light. Schumann’s work is a continuous and constant exploration of color, light, and their expressive potential. From natural and artificial light to black light, the works interact with variations in light, constantly creating new effects of color, shadow, and surface. This unpretentious, open aesthetic in Regine Schumann’s works, combined with technical perfection, creates—in its simple clarity—a contrast to the chaos and turbulence of everyday life. They encourage reflection on one’s own perception and invite us to pause and reflect.
