Marita Tobner is a German abstract expressionist known for her mixed media artworks. Overarching themes in Marita's work are the reality of womanhood, the love of life, and the manifold aspects of being. Her pieces are not politically-charged, though; they provide hints rather than direct messages about collected experiences and personal stories.

Marita Tobner’s Style and Practice

Marita explores our fragmented and inconsistent world views by assembling her images from disparate fragments of material, mass media, and other stylistic devices. This corresponds to our sensory perception of reality, opening up tensions between our inner and outer experiences. A dramatic colour scheme and layers of dynamic graphics combine to reveal and cover details in her paintings and collages. Marita creates her works serially with mixed media, using anything and everything from acrylic, oil, wood or linocut, to collage, painting, and drawing.

Awards and Training

Marita has received art prizes in Ulm, Leipzig and Kitzbühl. She trained at the Ulm School of the Artists' Guild and the Art Academy in Esslingen and is represented by LEX Artdrome Gallery Bad Mergentheim, Gallery Inspire Art Dresden and Gallery Alpha7 Weisweil, in Germany. The artist has exhibited in Germany, Austria, Italy, Switzerland and the USA. Her paintings, graphics and linocuts are in national and international collections.
