[ Mar 30, 2006]  Bremen born freelance artist Susanne Schossig creates large-formatted drawings that are devoted to time. Yet, her works appear to be time-less in their appearance, consisting of depictions with dense structure of uncountable, short, and terse lines. This, as art historian Professor Ursula Frohne explains, “reveals that these works emerge from the persistent, unceasing conformity of an insisting stroke, condensing like a fabric on the surface of the support material. Multiple layers of different tones of lightness or color applications overlap in equally transparent and opaque textures.”

Internationally and nationally, Susanne Schossig’s artwork has been widely exhibited. Some stops in Schossig’s artistic journey of nearly 20 years were the Städtische Galerie Bremen, Gallery Jones in Vancouver, Canada, the Gallery Don Socer in San Francisco, and the touring exhibition “In Progress” – Europäischer Bilderfries (Bremen, Munich, Leipzig, Stockholm) as well as several other exhibitions at numerous national galleries.
