Jakob Weidemann made this painting, Komposisjon I, with what looks like oil on canvas, and it’s a trip. Look at the way he lets the colors bump up against each other, those greens, blues and reds all jostling for space. You get the sense he's not trying to smooth things over, but to let the process show. The texture's interesting here. You can see the strokes, the way the paint sits on the surface – thick in some spots, thin in others. It’s almost like he's sculpting with the paint. And those black lines, they really pop, don't they? They’re not just outlines, they're like a whole other layer of meaning, tying everything together, but also disrupting it. It puts me in mind of de Kooning, or maybe even some of the early abstract expressionists – that same sense of energy and experimentation, that willingness to just let the painting be what it wants to be. It’s a good reminder that art is a conversation, an ongoing exchange of ideas and influences. It's like Weidemann is saying, "Here's my take, what's yours?"
