"Nothing is as it seems in Jen Weissenbacher's paintings. The reality merges with pictorial reality into something new. The Art History came up with the beautiful term “magic realism” for this."
Dr. Bernd A. Gülker, Art Historian (part of his speech at the opening of the exhibition "The New Ones“ by Bund Gelsenkirchener Künstler)
