El Greco. Coming from Greece to Venice to end in Spain, that’s a real european biography. But to be rediscovered by german scholars and to inspire the german expressionism is even more exiting. El Grecos paintings are showing a special perspective on faces from down under - he treats the clothes in an abstract way, neglecting the details in order to work out the impression as a whole. Only using primary colors and green in large perpendicular fields of drapery, abstract painting is not far away. Another sign of modernity is his atelier making cover versions of his paintings to sell them around the world, changing the perception of reality.
