Edward Lentsch

Lentsch’s monumental sized works exhibit unique surfaces and refined textures while also reflecting a contemplative element of alchemy and spiritual introspection. The Spiritual overtones of Lentsch’s painting are captured by his titles, where he uses mystical images and esoteric subjects to inspire the imagination of his viewer.  He describes the method of naming his work, a process of “synectic reasoning,“ as “Trusting things that are alien, and alienating things that are trusted." He attempts to explain this idea by connecting a vast matrix of complex relationships between science and mysticism. A well-established mid-career painter based in Minneapolis, Lentsch has a proclivity for using a heavy amount of paint on canvas. The bold and assertive nature of Lentsch’s paintings steal the show in any space. Commissionable works are available.
