Navigating the works of Tilmann Krumrey is like embarking on an odyssey through the profoundest strata of human existence, underpinned by a narrative that transcends mere visual delight to engage in a deeper dialogue with the essence of being. Krumrey’s artistic journey is distinct, marked by his lineage steeped in the Bauhaus tradition through his father, Immo Krumrey, and an early exposure to a milieu of significant artistic influences. From the post-expressionist echoes in the studio of Doris von Sengbusch-Eckardt to the avant-garde undercurrents he absorbed from Prof. Albert Fessler, Krumrey’s formative experiences frame a sophisticated tableau of historical and conceptual artistry.

Paul Scott Malone’s art transcends the boundaries of the visual arts, situating him as a monumental force in the contemporary art scene. With an artistic vision that is at once personal and universal, he has carved a niche that resonates deeply with both the modern audience and the historical undercurrents of art. His works, oscillating between abstract emotionality and narrative immediacy, mark him as one of the most exceptional and talented artists of our era. As an art critic writing in the style of Rosalind E. Krauss, it is essential to contextualize Malone’s art within the trajectory of modernism while also highlighting its urgent significance for today’s society.

For me, the act of creating art is a form of social justice. I believe in using my work to raise awareness and spark conversations about unity and inclusion. My art invites viewers to confront societal divisions and shift their perspectives.
I hope to inspire dialogue about identity, encouraging people to not only celebrate our differences, but also recognize our shared essence. My journey as an immigrant has reinforced my belief that unity doesn’t require uniformity. True unity is found in the acceptance and celebration of our unique paths and our collective humanity.

My work is a mixture of so many styles and techniques but I’m very multifaceted so to me it makes sense, it feels like a language to me I can’t really explain it, and it gives me more options for collections, I like variety, I think a person can have many different aspects to them so I’m glad that this comes across. I think contemporary art has the responsibility to defy the ordinary in some way or another as its new and now and we’ll never get this time back, we get the opportunity for a reason and like fashion styles will always keep on changing depending on what’s going on around us.

Ultimately, I hope my work resonates with individuals on a personal level while contributing to the broader development of interdisciplinary art. My goal is to push the boundaries of what art can be and how it can be experienced, encouraging artists and audiences from diverse cultural backgrounds to engage with creativity in a more open and exploratory way.

I think that in human beings everything combines in a much less orderly way and as an artist I am passionate about these infinite possibilities of interaction. My basic elements are images, music and words. From time to time I can experiment with technologies that involve these elements but I always try to maintain a strong artisanal basis, a manual ability in doing things, a relationship with experiences that help me find a personal voice and reflect without taking preconceived positions.

I use patterns to tell a story. Sometimes, the story doesn't materialize until a couple of days into the painting. Digging into the deeper side of the story is the hardest part for me. I'm affected by what's happening in the world, politically and concerning humanity. Sometimes, it's simple, but most of the time, I have to dig down and find the story. That recently happened with "Horizons", a new painting. It looks fairly cool and clean at the top but the drips and drags speak to the darker side of life.

My philosophy behind using a vibrant and luminous color palette stems from a deep conviction that colors have a tremendous impact on emotions and mood. I choose bright colors because they can trigger an immediate, energetic reaction. These colors represent joy, energy, and passion, which I want to convey through my work. By using intense tones, I aim to encourage viewers to perceive inner feelings and emotional experiences. I believe that each color has its own language, which can communicate directly with the subconscious

Throughout my personal and professional life, art has been an invaluable source of joy and empathy, helping me navigate the many challenges I’ve faced. Engaging in creative expression whether through sculpture or painting provides me with a unique outlet for my feelings and emotions. The beginning of the creative process is particularly exhilarating; it allows me to manifest ideas that only existed in my imagination into something tangible. This transformation fills me with a profound sense of joy and accomplishment.

The blend of Persian and Arab cultures from Iran to Dubai shaped my art with a unique fusion of patterns, colors, and themes, reflecting both tradition and modernity. Moving to the USA opened a new world of inspiration and allowed me to experiment boldly with mixed media, adding depth and texture to my work. Embracing textiles and various materials has made my art more tactile and immersive, each piece a testament to the freedom and creative evolution found along this journey.

My creative exploration began in earnest  through the full-time pursuit of a BFA during 1972-1976, fortuitously, an exciting and remarkable point in time. After graduating from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, I continued to create and show locally while working in related creative fields.
Always forward-looking, I typically test related forms of expression and mediums in the pursuit of inspiration. That being said, my current work reflects a journey marked by flowing lines and color relationships expressing observations made of the less tangible through acrylics on high quality papers.

I have always loved classical paintings and to bring them back to life with often the simplest of novelty tweaks. The challenge is appealing to the general public with such a niche subject, which may not appeal to everyone. I find graffiti is equally as fascinating and my interest began when visiting New York for the second time in 2014. Many of my own photographs taken from the streets have been the inspiration and backdrop to some of my early image creations.

I've noticed that no matter the city or the cultural backdrop, people respond to my work in similar ways. It’s a reminder that we all wrestle with the same fundamental issues—mental health, identity, connection, the struggle to make sense of our own minds in a world that doesn’t slow down. The themes I explore—vulnerability, resilience, the friction between humanity and technology—cut through cultural differences. They reach a part of us that’s universal.
