Miron Schmückle

The Romanian-German artist Miron Schmückle is a singular position within contemporary art. Growing up in Romania under Nicolae Ceaușescu, he dreamed of other worlds that seemed forever inaccessible due to the Iron Curtain. From the beginning, Schmückle’s uniquely coherent pictorial cosmos has been linked to the idea of primeval forests and jungles, oscillating between hyperrealism and undisguised escapism, precise observation of nature and exuberant imagination.
