Description from the seller

A unique piece by the artist Christoph Prein - UNIQUE & ORIGINAL PAINTING - 100% HAND-PAINTED - Description and real-time certificate included!

-

Title: "Beat Shift"

Description:
Something here isn’t quite right – and that is exactly where the tension lies. The shapes seem to follow a fixed rhythm, yet time and again they slide slightly out of sync. Like a heartbeat that briefly stumbles, like a step that comes too early or too late.

Red pushes forward, black resists, white creates room to breathe. Nothing is random, but also nothing is completely controlled. Order tries to assert itself, while movement quietly undermines it.

"Beat Shift" feels human: this constant balancing between structure and impulse, between going along and resistance. A painting about the small side effect – that minimal shift that makes everything come alive.

-

The canvas is delivered rolled up.


Christoph Prein is an Austrian artist known for his abstract and contemporary works, primarily created with acrylic paints. Originally from St. Margarethen near Knittelfeld, Prein’s pieces are often characterized by their minimalist, abstract style and are carefully crafted from high-quality materials to ensure vibrant colors and durability. In his art he frequently explores themes such as identity, memory and the exploration of human emotions, often shifting the boundaries between the visible and the invisible.

Prein’s approach to art is multidimensional, combining painting with elements of sculpture and installation. This distinctive style has earned him recognition both in Austria and internationally, with exhibitions across Europe, North America and Asia. His work often invites viewers to reflect on the complexities of the modern world and the deeper aspects of the human experience.

For a painting measuring 200 x 90 cm, you need a stretched canvas frame of size 190 x 80 cm and a thickness of 2-4 cm.

You can then either stretch the canvas yourself or have it stretched by an artisan or gallery.

This is a handmade original, signed by the artist on the back and dated.

High-quality and lightfast acrylic paints were used on multiple layers of white-primed gallery canvas.

A varnish was also applied to protect the work.

This work is handmade and therefore unique!

If a person goes into his innermost depths, into a sphere that rarely comes to light, into a space that is mysterious and hidden, waiting to be discovered, tickled awake, also tormentingly uplifted, then art is born.

Seller's Story

My name is Christoph Prein, a freelance artist from St. Margarethen near Knittelfeld. I have been painting for many years, especially acrylic painting. My abstract acrylic paintings and my classic works of art are made from high-quality materials. I only work with the finest artist acrylic and other selected products. All acrylic paintings are signed by me, dated to the year and sealed with a final varnish. I attach great importance to originality and confirm that each painting is handmade and therefore unique.
