Sebastian LUDWIG - Back to the Future

Featured works

Press release

Jean-Luc and Takako Richard present Sebastian Ludwig’s second exhibition in Paris entitled Back to the Future from January 27 to February 24, 2024. Sebastian Ludwig is a painter who represents time, the wear he produces, the memory that transforms him, images that no longer have dates, past, present,future

The lines of his 2018 press release are equally aimed at this new exhibition: “Sebastian Ludwig is not a prolific painter. He takes the time to develop. Artworks that have a density of visual wills for future generations on our contemporary age. His paintings already seem to possess this patina, this effect of progressive erasure specific to paintings from a very ancient time. The artist’s major visual references are strongfar from the artists of instantaneity, so numerous today. They are in the paintings

and prints from the Middle Ages and Romantic painters.”
