Helene B. Grossmann ( born 1943 in Dresden) studied at the Hochschule für Bildende Künste Dresden from 1981 to 1985. She then relocated to Munich, where she established her studio.
Grossmann’s practice centers on painting as a medium for exploring light. Since the early 1990s, she has focused on the materialization of light through layered color structures. Her works are characterized by subtle chromatic transitions, depth, and a shifting perception that evolves with changing light conditions. The interplay between transparency, reflection, and color creates an immersive spatial experience.
Her practice maintains a consistent investigation of perception, spatial depth, and the transformation of light into painterly form.
