Dieter Hall: A Naked Chair

By Dieter Hall

Whether of a chair, a flower or a nude form, Hall's confrontational still lifes and portraits are photographic in their intensity yet candid in their intimacy

Reacting to the psychological realism of Alice Neel's paintings and the intimate compositions by Peter Hujar and David Armstrong, Dieter Hall (born 1955) paints man thrown back on himself--often nude, without any social attributes, in splendid isolation. The resulting works, minimally yet minutely arranged, tell of a deep-seated need for connection.
