For the past forty years, Jurgen Schilling (b. 1954) has been
drawing the landscape of southern France. The art historian Wilhelm
Schlink has accompanied his career from the beginning as a friend
and collaborative thinker. Schlink describes in lively manner the
artist’s approaches and reflections, especially against the
background of the current debate about contemporary interpretations
of the landscape. Since the 1970s Jurgen Schilling has found
inspiration in the rough countryside between the Mediterranean, the
Corbieres and the Minervois, where the natural elements can be
experienced at first hand. Based on his studies of art history and
philosophy relating to the broad field of landscape representation,
he has created an oeuvre driven by the imperative of doing justice
to events and experiences. Schilling uses in his work the raw
materials and pigments found on location. A first retrospective of
his work was held in Carcassonne in 2012.
