About Christine Falk

Mainly I´m a painter, but sometimes I also make photographie, concepts and installations. My paintings are dominated by stripes, grids, structures, lines and monocrome colourfields. I paint houses, windows, roofs, fences, meadows...details of landscapes and urban landscapes. I´m looking always for the atmosphere of the surrounding. www.christinefalk.de . And I´m an organizer of international culture exchange projects: www.anotherchina.de www.banyan-project.de www.comingcloser.de
