The square oil painting comes from Rudolf Draheim’s body of work at “Panta Rhei.” The expression, originating from Greek, means “Everything flows” and describes the idea of a world in a perpetual process of change.

The composition is dominated by intense blues, greens and yellows, with individual red and dark color fields. Horizontal, sometimes smeared color transitions meet strong vertical forms and thickly applied passages. This creates an abstract, atmospheric image landscape that oscillates between movement, spatial depth and color intensification.

Rudolf Draheim began painting in 1981 and was a co-founder of the Nalepa Gallery in Berlin in 1984. His works have been shown, among others, at the Münchhausen Museum in Bodenwerder, the Georgian National Museum in Tiflis, the HeroAll Art Salon in Chengdu and at the Fetzer Gallery. Since 1997, works by the artist have been part of the German Bundestag collection. Additional works are in corporate and private collections.

The work comes from a private collection.

The work is in good overall condition. No major damages or noticeable restorations are visible.

The painting will be shipped unframed and on the stretched canvas. Shipping is carried out carefully and securely packaged. Pickup by appointment is also possible.
