ATHENSART ODYSSEIA

Astrid Krüger Astrid Krüger was born at Glückstadt (Germany) on May 21, 1966. She lives and works in Hamburg. She has been interested in art for a long time , but she turned to practice it when she saw an African stone sculpture exhibition. She immediately decided to learn sculpture from a local artist. For some years she concentrated in specializing in stone sculpturing. Afterwards she needed to change and to experiment with different materials and different approaches to art. Meanwhile she studied art at the Free Art School in Hamburg – held by former Beuys-Students. In result she became a painter with a great love for Asian wash painting. Nevertheless she mainly paints with oil colours. But I try to create a similar atmosphere of silence, emptiness and space for continuing the painting in mind.
