ANDREAS LÜTHI (*1961 in Uesslingen) examines the theme of infinity, aspects of space and time and how to translate them into images. The numbers all have the same value, what you see is what you get; that is honest and true. Opalka's paintings are pictorial portraits of numbers. Andreas Lüthi is now pursuing it.
For Andreas Lüthi, this painting leads to a feeling that he first experienced as a child when he looked up at the starry sky and became aware of the infinite. This grandiose feeling leads to a stoic serenity that makes it possible not to take everyday problems too seriously, it promotes tolerance and humanity. It would be great if viewers could also develop this feeling of infinity when looking at the works.

ANDREAS LUETHI (*1961 in Uesslingen) grew up in the canton of Thurgau and completed his medical studies in Zurich. He became interested in philosophical ideas early on and began painting 25 years ago. His pictures almost always feature rows of numbers or lines, symbols of infinity, his passion.
The universe also ends, but what comes next? These are questions that Andreas Luethi asked himself even as a child. Painting lines and numbers is pure contemplation, for hours on end. His pictures are often numbered and named "Detail" or "Entry", as a symbol for a small section of a large whole.
Andreas Luethi's art has already been shown successfully in Winterthur, New York, Salzburg, Munich and last year at the Venice Biennale.
