Description from the seller

Boloria Pales Abstract

Originalgemälde auf Leinwand – Acryl & Ölkreide – 90 × 60 cm

Versand gerollt ohne Rahmen

With "Boloria Pales Abstract" an expressive, large-format original painting, the figure of a butterfly is translated into a free, abstracted visual language.

The work combines acrylic painting with drawing passages in oil chalk. Luminous orange, red and gold tones define the portrayal, while dark, spontaneously applied lines and planes create a tense contrast to the color-intensive image surface. The visible brushstrokes, overlaps and drawing interventions give the piece a deliberately immediate, lively effect.

The title "Boloria Pales" refers to the high-alpine or Pales checkers butterfly (Boloria pales). It is less about a scientifically exact depiction than about an artistic interpretation of its characteristic form. The butterfly becomes the starting point for an autonomous composition between concreteness and abstraction.

Historically, the work can be placed in the tradition of Expressionism and informal/gestural abstraction. As in these movements, the foreground is not the most accurate reproduction of the visible world, but the emotional impact of color, line, movement and materiality. The combination of painterly and drawing elements also recalls the dissolution of classical boundaries between painting and drawing, which was increasingly practiced, especially in 20th-century art.

Andrea Krauß, Gewinnerin des Kunstpreises der AOK Nordost, Berlin/Brandenburg und Stipendiatin des Künstlerhauses Lukas in Ahrenshoop, ist Absolventin der Kunstakademie HbK Braunschweig.

Seller's Story

Andrea Krauß counts among the striking figures of contemporary German painting. The recipient of the AOK Nordost Art Prize (Berlin/Brandenburg) and former fellow of the renowned Künstlerhaus Lukas in Ahrenshoop completed her studies at the Braunschweig University of Art. For many years she has consistently dedicated herself to painting and today lives and works in her studio in the heart of Berlin. At the center of her artistic work lies the connection between memory, atmosphere and landscape. Starting from personal impressions, Andrea Krauß develops imagery that points beyond the individual and touches universal experiences of nature, space and transience. Recurring motifs are especially birches and other elements of nature, whose quiet presence merges with traces of human shaping and memory. Characteristic of her works is the layered combination of painting and drawing. In her acrylic paintings, fine relief structures arise through the use of sand, spatula techniques and integrated lines, giving the works a special tactile quality and spatial depth. The lines drawn directly into the color layers act like inscribed memories and shape the artist’s unmistakable handwriting. Andrea Krauß’s works have been presented in galleries, museums and renowned exhibitions and today reside in numerous private collections. Her works impress with their poetic force, their atmospheric density, and the sensitive connection between nature observation and personal memory.
