Schuldhess, Jörg Shimon - Gemälde, Flughafenhalle is a 1990 by Jörg Shimon Schuldhess, held at Poets and City Museum Liestal.
This print is packed with bold black outlines and flat colors. You see lots of small, simple figures—some standing, some dancing, others in strange poses. The background is red, and the whole thing is split into boxy sections like a comic strip. Faces are exaggerated, with big eyes and open mouths, and some figures look like they’re in motion. The style feels a bit like old storybooks or folk art, with no deep shadows or realistic details. It’s all sharp lines and bright areas, almost like a stencil. If you like this look, check out chiaroscuro to see how other artists used light and shadow for drama.
