VANTA, Magnetite, an original oil painting on canvas (2025) by VANTA, measuring 175 × 140 cm in red with bold black strokes, hand signed and sold direct from the artist, Austria.
Description from the seller
“Magnetite” (2025)
Oil on canvas
175 x 140 cm
Deep vivid red provides the foundation here, worked into a field that maintains intensity across the entire surface. Against this saturated ground, VANTA has applied bold black strokes that create stark contrast and immediate visual drama. The black marks cut across the red with confidence - some precise and controlled, others ending in splashes that suggest speed and force in their application.
Represented by S-Gallery and listed on Catawiki, this piece builds its impact through chromatic opposition. That intense red refuses to recede, maintaining presence even where black overlays it. The dark strokes don’t diminish the red’s power but rather amplify it through contrast, making both colors read more intensely than they would in isolation.
The large canvas gives these bold marks room to develop their own rhythm and spacing. They don’t crowd the composition but distribute themselves across the red field in a way that creates visual tension and movement, pulling the eye from one gesture to the next while the red ground holds everything together.
Shipping:
The work is delivered without a frame (professional packaging, rolled in a tube). it can easily be restretched by a professional or on your own, this is also cheaper then the otherwise increased cost of shipping when sending paintings of this size stretched
The measurements indicated are those of the painting stretched and mounted on a frame (The actual
measurements of the canvas are larger to allow it to be mounted on a frame 2-4cm thick.
