Seibt
The Swiss artist Peter Seibt, a particularly sensitive artist who has lived in Greece for eighteen years, on Paros, has been inspired by the light in this country in his artistic output. Regardless of the particular stimulus of a work, Seibt manages to convey to his viewers the sense of radiance, the refractions, and the penetrating quality of the Greek light on the sea, the flora and figures / creatures penetrated as if by X-ray; landscapes that are made inexhaustibly suggestive through his orchestration of color; refractions that make light and color one and vice-versa, in the idea and the sense that we have of Apollonian light, charm the viewer and leave lingering impressions long after the images have faded. One would with no hesitation say that he has a musically and rhythmically expressed artistic feeling for light: a quality that through the artist’s works, suggests the idea of the cosmogony itself.
