Bernd Koberling's highly emotional approach to the figurative act of landscape painting has long been influenced by his dual residency in Berlin and the Laplands. From his formalist beginnings in the 1960s through his expressive figurations of the 70s and 80s, and his black-and-white abstracts of the 90s, nature has served for Koberling as a metaphor of existential conflict, and as means of commenting on society.
