    This painting is based on an analog photograph taken by Tina during her time working in gastronomy while studying. The work has a long development history, from initial sketch to its final version in 2019. It combines documentary elements with a painterly interpretation of the space, which once served as a sailor’s pub. This process reflects Tina’s characteristic approach of revisiting and transforming works over extended periods.

    Kairos developed over time. In 2003, the work began as a hunting scene on stripes, later gaining a face and a receiver. Gradually, Tina abstracted the motif further within her program. In Greek mythology, Kairos personifies the decisive moment – the “right time” that must be seized. In contrast to Chronos, who stands for linear and measurable time, Kairos signifies the critical point at which a situation becomes irreversible.

    Chronos was created in two stages.
    At first, Tina set out to create Prometheus’ Daughter. In a second phase, the background was given more depth, which altered the overall effect of the painting and added an additional dimension. In doing so, it detached itself from the original composition while remaining connected to it in terms of content. Together with Kairos, Chronos addresses the overarching theme of time.

    This work is based on the „b-present“ installation from 2003, which transformed a historical space from Wim Wenders‘ film „The American Friend“ (1977) into a painted club scene. In 2018, Tina Oelker reworked the central painting „The Queue“ to create „Athene“. The painting combines elements of the original club scene with symbolism of the Greek goddess of wisdom and warfare.

    „Zeus“ is a work from Tina Oelker’s oeuvre, created through a three-stage process. The starting point was an abstract idea, developed over several phases. This resulted in various layers or „dimensions“ that give the painting depth. The layering invites viewers to engage with the work repeatedly.


    „Zeus“ ist ein Werk aus Tina Oelkers Œuvre, das in einem dreistufigen Prozess entstand. Ausgangspunkt war eine abstrakte Idee, die über mehrere Etappen weiterentwickelt wurde. Dabei entstanden verschiedene Ebenen oder „Dimensionen“, die dem Gemälde Tiefe verleihen. Die Schichtung lädt den Betrachter dazu ein, sich immer wieder mit dem Werk auseinanderzusetzen.

    Hermes N° 3 is part of a three-piece series on the theme of Hermes. The work went through several stages of development, beginning in 2012 under the working title „Face off“. The final version was created in 2020 and reflects a conceptual evolution that is thematically addressed in my book „Von Hasen und Göttern“ (Of Rabbits and Gods) (2021). The painting serves as the cover image for the book and is in direct dialogue with my artistic exploration of the figure of Hermes.


    Hermes N° 3 ist Teil einer dreiteiligen Serie zum Thema Hermes. Das Werk durchlief mehrere Entwicklungsstufen, beginnend 2012 unter dem Arbeitstitel „Face off“. Die finale Version entstand 2020 und reflektiert eine konzeptuelle Weiterentwicklung, die in meinem Buch „Von Hasen und Göttern“ (2021) thematisch aufgegriffen wird. Das Gemälde dient als Umschlagbild des Buches und steht in direktem Dialog mit meiner künstlerischen Auseinandersetzung mit der Figur des Hermes.

    Tina Oelker repainted this work in 2024, which began as a self-portrait in 2022. This overpainting is a typical example of Tina’s approach to reinterpreting older works and transforming them into abstract compositions. In „Persephone“, the original figurative foundation remains perceptible, but the reworking translates it into a multi-layered and dynamic visual language.


    Tina Oelker übermalte dieses Werk 2024, das 2022 als Selbstporträt entstand. Dieser Vorgang ist ein typisches Beispiel für Tinas Arbeitsweise, ältere Werke neu zu interpretieren und in abstrakte Kompositionen zu transformieren. In „Persephone“ bleibt die ursprüngliche figurative Grundlage spürbar, wird aber durch die Überarbeitung in eine vielschichtige und dynamische Bildsprache übersetzt.

    The painting was created between 2014 and 2017 in a multi-stage process, beginning at Hafentor7 as a figurative work. Characteristic of Oelker’s approach, it was repeatedly revised, erased, and repainted, giving the oil colors their distinctive depth and shimmering quality. “Heracles (Hercules)” represents a central work in her engagement with Greek mythology – a theme that has inspired Tina since her youth and that she has continuously drawn upon to enrich and deepen the content of her artistic practice.


    Das Gemälde entstand zwischen 2014 und 2017 in einem mehrstufigen Prozess, beginnend im Hafentor7 zunächst als figuratives Werk. Typisch für Oelkers Arbeitsweise wurde es mehrfach überarbeitet, gelöscht und übermalt, wodurch die Ölfarben ihre besondere Tiefe und changierende Wirkung erhielten. „Heracles (Herkules)“ ist ein zentrales Werk ihrer Auseinandersetzung mit der griechischen Mythologie – einem Thema, das Tina seit ihrer Jugend prägt und das sie in ihrem künstlerischen Schaffen immer wieder aufgreift, um ihre inhaltlichen Fragestellungen zu vertiefen.

    „Prometheus“ marks a turning point in Tina Oelker’s oeuvre and introduces her immersive series. The painting is built upon a colored oil imprimatura applied over a triple white gesso ground, creating a pearlescent shimmer and unusual depth. Executed in a spontaneous process without later reworking, Tina layered different levels directly on top of each other, achieving a balance between abstraction and figuration. The deliberate reduction to essential brushstrokes directs attention to the work’s color impact and immediate presence. „Prometheus“ unites technical precision with a new openness, making it a key piece in her artistic evolution.


    „Prometheus“ markiert einen Wendepunkt in Tina Oelkers Schaffen und eröffnet ihre immersive Staffel. Das Werk basiert auf einer farbigen Ölimprimitur, die einer dreifachen weißen Grundierung folgt und ein perlmuttartiges Changieren erzeugt. In einem spontanen, unmodellierten Malprozess überlagerte Tina mehrere Ebenen direkt, wodurch eine Balance zwischen Abstraktion und Figur entsteht. Die bewusste Reduktion auf wesentliche Pinselzüge lenkt den Blick auf Farbwirkung und Präsenz des Bildes. „Prometheus“ verbindet technische Präzision mit einer neuen Offenheit und gilt als Schlüsselwerk ihrer Entwicklung.
