Description from the seller

Acrylic on canvas, 2022

Thick professional quality canvas

125 × 155 cm

Original work, hand-painted
Excellent condition

Signed and dated on the back by the artist
Certificate of authenticity signed by the artist

The photos are taken in natural light, as faithfully as possible to the true tones. The lifestyle/setting visuals help appreciate the painting’s dimensions and physical presence. Proportions are preserved.

Ralf Altrieth is a Franco-German painter recognized for his expressive and spontaneous universe, at the boundary between figuration and abstraction.

His work, nourished by more than thirty years of creation between painting and music, stands out for a rare pictorial energy and a highly sensitive language. His works are now in numerous private collections around the world.

Each painting by Ralf Altrieth develops a distinct universe, an expressive and living painting that does not fade with time.

CRITICISM AND PRESS:
"In this sense, Ralf Altrieth’s pictorial poems are a pure childish song. From the crucible of improvisation, he conjures a world intact, made of spontaneous joys and strong impulses."
— Dr. Friedhelm Häring, art historian and museum director

"There is in Ralf Altrieth’s painting a generosity that has its own imagery-rich, colorful language, without turning color into a creed, funny without wanting to be caricatural, joyful without idealism, energetic without being thunderous, in short a profoundly human language."
— Bernard Pignero, writer

"The eye must bounce, catch on, detach; it is captured by color, by the energy of the gesture, by the strange cohabitations, the musical rhythms of jazz where Ralf Altrieth also acts as a saxophonist, a devotee of improvisation."
— Stéphane Cerri, journalist

SHIPPING:
The canvas is shipped rolled, carefully protected in a sturdy tube to guarantee safe transport.
The indicated dimensions correspond to the work mounted on a frame. The canvas includes extra white margins to allow easy re-tensioning. The buyer may entrust this work to their local framer.

Seller's Story

Ralf Altrieth is a Franco-German painter, recognized for his expressive and spontaneous universe, at the border between figuration and abstraction. His work, nourished by more than thirty years of creation between painting and music, is distinguished by a rare pictorial energy and a particularly sensitive language. Trained in his teens with the painter Georg Schaible, then at the Academy of Fine Arts in Nürtingen at the end of the 1980s, his works are today in numerous private collections around the world. Shown in many galleries and European art venues, he lives and works today in the south of France.
