Emil Schumacher's paintings are characterized by painting with the material. He immerses himself in the paint, changes its consistency to an earthy tone and uses it to model the pictorial form. Several layers of red-orange penetrate a volcanic black. In doing so, he embarks on a creative path that will ultimately lead to the rigorous activism of the "hammer pictures" and the destruction and damage of the image carrier. In his works from the mid-1960s, Emil Schumacher abolished the dualism of ground and painterly form, he displaces the compositional structure in favor of a homogeneous layer of paint. The canvas gains in plasticity through brute surface treatment, here with a deep, wide furrow around the central red. Color no longer has a purely color-giving function, but receives a dynamic that speaks for itself through the immanent materiality. [EH]
