Title: "Windows without Walls"
Description:
Sometimes only fragments of memories remain—like windows that look out into emptiness. This painting tells of such moments: of thoughts, places and encounters that cannot be fully grasped, yet still leave their traces.
The hovering forms seem like open windows, not bound to fixed walls. They provide insights without revealing everything. Between the bright areas, the deep blues and the small red accents, a space for personal stories and feelings emerges.
"Windows without Walls" invites letting go of boundaries and turning attention to what lies between memory and imagination. It is a painting about freedom, openness and the many possibilities that arise when not everything is fixed.
-
The *cracks in the painting are deliberately intentional*. They are not a sign of damage, but part of the artistic expression. The breaks belong to the surface like scars to the skin: they tell of tension, movement and the process itself. Precisely through these cracks the work gains depth and authenticity—nothing is smoothed, nothing hidden.
The canvas is delivered rolled.
Christoph Prein is an Austrian artist known for his abstract and contemporary works, created mainly 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 addresses themes such as identity, memory and the exploration 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 unique style has brought 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 160 x 100 cm you need a canvas stretcher frame of size 150 x 90 cm and a thickness of 2-4 cm.
You can then either simply stretch the canvas yourself or have it stretched by an artisan or gallery.
This is a handmade original, which the artist has signed on the back and dated by year.
High-quality and lightfast acrylic paints were used on multiple-layer white-primed gallery canvas.
A varnish was also applied to protect the work.
This work is handmade and therefore a one-of-a-kind!
--- Certificate of authenticity included ---
Beautify your private residence, law firm, practice or office and upgrade your spaces in an elegant and stylish way.
When 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, gently teased awake, even painfully upright, then art is born.

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.
