AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

At first glance, Ralf Altrieth's painting seems to burst forth in a free, instinctive impulse. Then the gaze lingers—and gradually discovers a more complex world, traversed by moving forms, unexpected encounters and unanticipated balances. Nothing is fixed. The work continually evolves depending on the distance, the light and the time spent before it.

In this universe, the boundary between abstraction and figuration remains deliberately unstable. Possible silhouettes surface, depths are suggested, never fixed. The gaze is engaged, set in motion. Seeing becomes an active, almost physical experience.

But beyond their immediate energy, Ralf Altrieth's works settle permanently into space. They settle in through their density. Through their presence. And by this rare ability to transform the space in which they take place.

NOTE:
Visuals of staging are IA visualizations based on photographs of the actual object. The photographs of the actual object prevail.

CRITIQUE ET PRESSE:
"In this sense, the pictorial poems of Ralf Altrieth are a pure childish chant. From the crucible of improvisation he brings forth a world intact made of spontaneous joys and strong impulses."
— Dr Friedhelm Häring, art historian and museum director

"His gesture-and-color writing describes a world open to new voices and experiments never tried. His canvases and works on paper demonstrate that painting remains a major expression of the contemporary scene."
— Laurent Puech, art historian and curator

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.
