Christian Schoeler is a young German painter, working out of Dusseldorf. His expressionistic (and I use this term generically not in an "art" context) work was shown by Galerie Urs Meile (Beijing, Lucerne) at Art Basel.
It caught my eye because of the juxtaposition of realism and the abstract. Look at the face closely--or part of the face. The move your focus downward. His work moves and confounds. Try to get a handle on it, try to say what precisely is going on in the piece.
And all that is good. Confounding is good, melding different styles together seemlessly is good.
