Journey to Venice - Danièle Ohnheiser

The evocative intensity of the design and the technique reveals a refined sense of the colors, which is naturally combined with the indisputable modernity of the geometry of the composition. She succeeded perfectly in purifying the image of Venice from the unctuous, unreliable tones that would have it crystallized in a place and time without memory, on the verge of legend.

Very free in the choice of subjects, she focuses as much on a majestic palace as on a well-lit trefoil window, on a breakaway between two bridges, a worm-eaten door or on a small colonnade half sunk in the Grand Canal.

Thus are highlighted the details of a city that certainly is no longer that of its grandeur, but which still belongs to those who love beauty, and who, by searching a little, can rediscover the mysterious silence of so many of its corners. Daniele Ohnheiser also painted Rome, Florence or Naples and participated in exhibitions in France and abroad. She has received numerous prizes.
