Hutzinger’s paintings, which first emerged through murals, give the impression of being brittle and unexcited. Recurring modules are modified in form and colour as “a capsule or cell-like, bordered form” that the artist “can use as a kind of duplicable logo” (Rainer Fuchs).

Hutzinger is the opposite of a spontaneous painter or pigment pourer. Slow is the programmatic name of a work group made in 2000. The pictures are free of pathos and are quiet – much remains free floating. The carefully counterbalanced spectrum of colours is almost phlegmatic in it effect. There are references to the now-deprecated colours fashionable in the 70’s,  such as the shades of orange and brown found in interior decoration fabrics or public seating. However, even reminiscences of this sort seem washed out – thinned down. A new kind of painting can emerge from all this emptying and allow, very carefully, terms such as beauty and delicacy to come into play.
