Albert Enz - Art poetics between travel and visions<br />
Albert Enz's sources are particularly traceable to this early painter and later,<br />
due to color modulation and the presence of pure color itself, also to abstract<br />
and informal painters. But why Burri? Enz's body of work isn't solely<br />
comprised of mountains and nature scenes, but also includes numerous<br />
melancholic reflections and chromatic experimentation, resembling that<br />
of Alberto Burri. Burri's 1954 work "Il Sacco" seems to underpin Albert Enz's<br />
"Fenetre vers la mer" (2019). Though highly distinct in terms of color, the geometric<br />
structure and arrangement on the canvas are strikingly similar. Enz's<br />
palette also mirrors Burri's, with the presence of more neutral hues like sand<br />
and brighter tones like red.<br />
The timeline stretching from Cézanne to Alberto Burri spans over a century.<br />
Albert Enz has thus assimilated, at times even involuntarily, the most important<br />
and intriguing legacy of Contemporary Art, positioning himself as<br />
a present thread connecting our past to our future.<br />
