Medium: Acrylic, ink and oil on paper
Unframed: 86 × 57 cm
Education: University of the Witwatersrand
Artist Info: Manuela Karin Knaut (b. 1970) is a German abstract painter and installation artist based in Braunschweig, Germany. She holds a Master of Arts in Fine Art from the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg, South Africa, following earlier studies in art education at Justus-Liebig University in Gießen. Knaut maintains a large studio and print workshop in Braunschweig and a second studio in Johannesburg, a dual base that informs the energetic, globally inflected character of her work. Working primarily with painting and mixed media, she builds heavily layered surfaces using acrylics, spray paint, ink and collage, incorporating paper scraps, photographs, fabric and text in a process of gluing, sewing, nailing and erasing. Her compositions “hover between the derelict and the precious,” capturing a tenuous balance in vibrant colour, gesture and line. Knaut is a member of BBK, GEDOK, the International Association of Art (IAA/AIAP) and VANSA, and has exhibited internationally, including solo shows at 99 Loop Gallery (Cape Town) and GROVE, as well as numerous curated presentations on platforms such as Artsy and Ideel Art.
