Description from the seller

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

Title: "Concentration"

Description:
It seems as if something is pulling together here – thoughts, impressions, perhaps even time itself. The colors are not side by side; they press into each other, overlap, as if they have no room left to spread. The deep blue gathers like an inner state, calm and heavy at once, while the radiant yellow resists it – almost like a light that wants to forge its way forward.

In this field of tension, a special closeness arises. Nothing stays at a distance; everything moves closer, becomes more intense, more tangible. It reminds one of moments in life when many things come to a head – feelings tighten, thoughts grow louder, decisions become unavoidable. You cannot escape it; you are right in the midst of it.

And precisely in this lies something authentic. This compression is not just tightness; it is also focus. A point at which everything converges before something changes. Perhaps it is exactly this moment just before – before space opens up again.

-

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 their minimalist, abstract style and are carefully crafted from high-quality materials to ensure vivid colors and longevity. In his art he frequently engages 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 distinctive style has earned him recognition in Austria and internationally, with exhibitions across Europe, North America, and Asia. His works often invite viewers 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 of size 150 x 90 cm and a thickness of 2-4 cm.

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

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

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

A varnish was also applied to protect the work.

This work is handmade and thus unique!

--- Certificate of authenticity included ---

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

If a person delves into his innermost depths, into a sphere that rarely comes to light, into a space that is mysteriously and hiddenly waiting to be discovered, tickled awake, also tormentingly upheld, 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.
