Title: "Quiet Behind"

Description:
There is a sense that something else hides behind what is visible—something that is not loud, not tangible, yet still there. Like a memory that cannot be fully grasped, but remains perceptible. The layers feel like moments laid on top of each other, slowly dissolving into one another.

The blue carries a calm depth. It does not push itself forward, but stays reserved, almost cautious. And there lies its strength: it invites you to look longer, to become still, and to notice what does not immediately catch the eye.

"Quiet Behind" is this fine feeling that there is more than meets the eye at first glance. A space between things in which thoughts may lose themselves—and perhaps find something that previously had no name.

-

The canvas is delivered rolled.

Christoph Prein is an Austrian artist known for his abstract and contemporary works, created mainly with acrylic paints. Originating from St. Margarethen near Knittelfeld, Prein’s pieces are often characterized by a minimalist, abstract style and are crafted with high-quality materials to ensure vivid colors and longevity. In his art he frequently engages with themes such as identity, memory, and the exploration of human emotions, often blurring the line between what is visible and the invisible.

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

For a painting with the dimensions 200 x 120 cm, a stretcher of size 190 x 110 cm and a thickness of 2-4 cm is required.

You can either stretch the canvas yourself or have it stretched by an art craftsman or gallery.

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

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

A varnish was also applied to protect the work.

This work is handmade and thus unique!

--- Authentic certificate included ---

Beautify your private residence, law office, practice, or your office and elevate your spaces in an elegant and stylish way.

When a person descends into their 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 perhaps painfully awakened, 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.
