. To State of Art First

  Mission Statement

As OLIVEIRA SCHMIDT, Cristiano Oliveira and Holger Schmidt, our mission is to produce and offer limited editions of archival, digital prints in the highest quality.

​

The colorful, and uplifting inspirational artwork by Holger Schmidt is conceptually adapted by Cristiano Mendes and transformed into art pieces of their own dimensionality.

​

As a team we play with the delightful expressions of colors, structures, layers and formats through the evolving artform of the print medium.

​

​

We have to be reminded, it's all about fun.

​

Then, it's all about impact: Colors, patterns, layerings. Lately a lot of yarning.

​

To re-contextualize reality in an up cycle way. Someone said we are all tomorrow's food.

Of course, emotions have to be controlled. On Kawara tries on the hat of Joseph Beuys.

​

Try walking in our shoes…

Evoked by lyrical Dreamtime Walkabouts. Imagine - something will always Pop-up.

​

Of evolving consciousness . Zellij, Volpi, Klee. More is More is the mantra of the universe.

​

Koans and Haikus are all a part.

​

Chico Xavier and Ernest Holmes as a brief History os Everything; defined according to the Law of Attraction. Just google it - as an Art History teacher used to say.

​

Fragrant lavender greetings from Mirabei and Rumi, amongst others, instill wordly creations.

​

Goethe and Cora Coralina embrace. Left To My Own Devices (LTMOD), actually ours,  we have to use their original quote: 'There is a real purity to this work, a child like innocence.

​

But they're also smart and sophisticated.' Seeing is believing.

Namaste, Shalom, As-salamu alaykum, Friede sei mit Dir,

Tudo de Bom, Peace,
