Zenzi Glatt – having now reached the ripe age of 99 – has been painting for more than 40 years. What started spontaneously as a hobby, has continuously developed over the past decades and led to an extraordinary oeuvre.
Using various formats and techniques, Glatt sometimes creates completely abstract paintings that merely hint at a colorful, shining nature. Her works, like her personality, have a positive charisma and energy – one almost feels the desire to wrest the secret of this life-affirming attitude from both, from the old lady as well as from her paintings.
The proceeds from any works the socially committed artist sells has always been donated for charitable purposes. Helping others is the breath of life to Zenzi Glatt – meeting her and getting to know her works, her courage to face life, and her brilliant personality are like a breath of life to us.
