Alicia Viebrock
Alicia Viebrock (b. 1986, Munich, Germany) studied at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf under Professor Herbert Brandl and lives and works in Cologne, Germany.
In Viebrock’s work exuberant colour formations meet reduced compositional constructs with calligraphic elements. Colour power and dominance meet purposefully placed painterly gestures. Fleeting structures interlock through the viscosity of the paint, condition each other as flowing colour fields or assert themselves in self-confident demarcation. The sensuality of the paintings is reflected in their immediacy. The display of poured, dripped and splattered paint are indications of the expressive range of the artist, adopting a highly physical and psychological relationship with the surface. While strong colour fields on the canvas evoke a deliberate imbalance, the gestural settings on linen find a more determined hold, which is broken by gentle painterly expressions. The latter provokes a delicate flickering in the pictorial space.

Alicia Viebrock I Tranquility Kink
29 Mar - 5 May 2023The solo exhibition Tranquility Kink presents ten abstract, ink and acrylic paintings by the artist Alicia Viebrock. The new series of works, made especially for the exhibition, was created in a concerted working period in which both physical and emotional aloneness were prominent accompaniments. Dealing with the theme of spatial and mental solitude played a significant role in the process of producing the works. This is reflected, among other things, in the exhibition title, which refers to the preference (Kink) for loneliness - which can equally signify an experience of silence or peace of mind (Tranquility).Read more -
Alicia Viebrock I Wishful drinking
WISHFUL DRINKING 19 Oct - 20 Nov 2021'Alicia Viebrock, a former student of Herbert Brandl, stands for the gestural and expressive variant of abstraction. Spontaneous calligraphic, powerful brush movements and coloured sprinklings on a mostly neutral or monochrome background recall the German post-war Informell.
