Title: "Cool Longing"

Description:
"Cool Longing" feels like a quiet breath on a winter morning — fresh, clear, and full of unspoken wishes. The blue and white layers seem as if a reserved heart is cautiously laying its feelings bare. Nothing presses to the foreground, and yet one senses a deep movement below the surface, a gentle pull toward something distant, perhaps forgotten.

It is a painting that does not shout but touches softly. It captures a moment in which you pause, feel the cold on your skin, and at the same time notice this warm flicker inside — the longing you cannot quite name, but know.

-

The canvas is delivered rolled.

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 a minimalist, abstract style and are carefully crafted from high-quality materials to ensure vibrant colors and longevity. In his art he frequently explores themes of identity, memory, and the examination of human emotions, often pushing 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 in Austria and internationally, with exhibitions across Europe, North America, and Asia. His works invite viewers to reflect on the complexities of the modern world and the deeper aspects of human experience.

For a painting measuring 160 x 90 cm you need a stretcher frame sized 150 x 80 cm with a thickness of 2-4 cm.

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

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

High-quality, lightfast acrylic paints have been applied on multiple layers of white-primed gallery canvas.

Additionally, a varnish was applied to protect the work.

This work is handmade and thus unique!

--- Authenticity certificate included ---

Beautify your private residence, law firm, clinic, or office and upgrade your spaces in an elegant and stylish way.

When a person ventures 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, and also provocatively aroused, then art is born.
