Bernd Koberling's Icelandic Landscapes at Buchmann Galerie
Buchmann Galerie presents an exhibition of recent works by Bernd Koberling (b. 1938, Berlin) during Gallery Weekend Berlin 2026. A key figure in German postwar art, Koberling's oeuvre is defined by a constant renewal, evident in his latest paintings shaped by annual stays in Iceland since 1977. The island's nature influences his chromatic palette and painting techniques, producing works of intense visual impact. Paintings with titles like 'Erdstelle' and 'Moosheidegestein' use landscape as a metaphor for the human condition.
