Title: "Blockade"

Description:
Sometimes it feels as if something heavy is weighing on us. As if dark areas have piled up and would suffocate the glow underneath. "Blockade" tells of exactly this moment – the feeling of being stuck, seeing no passage, no clear path.

And yet there is this blue.

It breaks through the cracks, shimmers between the black layers, breathes under the pressure. It is not loud, not intrusive – but unmistakable. Like a thought that cannot be suppressed. Like hope that refuses to disappear.

The black shapes act like barriers, like shields or obstacles – perhaps imposed from outside, perhaps self-imposed. They overlap, conceal, control. But they are not complete. They cannot swallow the glow entirely.

"Blockade" is not stagnation. It is tension. It is the struggle between tightness and openness, between darkness and inner light. A painting about resilience – about how something in us continues to glow even under pressure.

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 vibrant colors and longevity. In his art he frequently engages themes such as identity, memory and the exploration of human emotions, often shifting the boundaries between the visible and the invisible.

Prein’s approach to art is multidimensional and combines painting with elements of sculpture and installation. This unique style has earned him recognition in Austria as well as 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 measuring 200 x 100 cm you need a Canadian stretcher frame? No, a stretcher frame of size 190 x 90 cm with a thickness of 2-4 cm.

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

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

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

A varnish was also applied to protect the work.

This work is handmade and therefore unique!

If 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, tickled awake, also tormentingly upright, then art is born.
