AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Each canvas is a unique creation. My painting hovers between abstraction and figuration. As in life, nothing is fixed. Things appear and then disappear. I have been painting for 35 years, and I participate in several exhibitions per year.

Very early on, I was drawn to the visual arts, and at age 14 I took private lessons with the painter Georg Schaible, before enrolling at the Academy of Fine Arts in Nürtingen from 1987 to 1989.

I have a preference for the fragile, the subtle, the uncalculated. I love everything that can happen when we’re not in a 'production' mindset, everything that can happen when we’re lost in the present moment.

I have lived in Berlin, Paris, Venice, Bavaria and Normandy, and I am now settled in the south of France.

I am also a jazz musician and composer.

My paintings are exhibited in numerous art venues in France and internationally, notably at MAC Paris, Galerie Théo de Seine (Paris), Galerie N5 (Montpellier), Galerie Hartmut Beck (Germany), and Galerie La Salamandre (Nîmes). Many are today part of private collections around the world.

The artwork will be provided with a signed and dated certificate of authenticity.

Tracked shipment with signature required.
To ensure optimal protection during transport, the work is sent rolled in professional and secure packaging, in accordance with the standards of the art market. Margins are provided on all sides to facilitate mounting on a stretcher and framing. The indicated dimensions correspond to the final format once the canvas is stretched.

Seller's Story

A poetic intensity—nourished by his personal universe between music and sensitive observation of the world—emerges from the paintings of the Franco-German artist Ralf Altrieth. Using a very personal language, he merges neo-expressionism and lyric abstraction into a universe characterized by line. Their gestural traits are born like musical improvisations: spontaneous, rhythmic, driven by a mix of intention and intuition. Exhibited in numerous galleries and art venues across Europe, he currently lives and works in the south of France.
