Peter Robert Keil - Vogelmensch - Kurfürstenstr. 48

*The last living great artist*
Peter Robert Keil is one of the most renowned and best contemporary painters and sculptors in Germany. Keil is known for his bold and beautiful paintings that capture the essence of life. His works can be found worldwide in museums, galleries, and private collections belonging to wealthy and well-known individuals. Peter Robert Keil painted alongside giants like Joan Miro, Picasso, Andy Warhol, Basquiat, and other artists, and is therefore often referred to as 'The last living big Artist.'
Early and new works (originals) by the artist are hardly affordable on the world market.

Very beautiful, extraordinary interpretation of a bird-human. Studio Berlin 83, Studio Kurfürstenstraße 48, a great, decorative collector's item.

In his unmistakable, expressive style, Peter Robert Keil creates a powerful symbiosis of human and animal with 'Birdman'. The surreal merged forms, dominant color fields, and black contouring give the work an energetic tension. The bird, as a symbol of freedom, meets the human face – a metaphor for longing, transformation, and duality.

A work that fascinates and invites interpretation.

The composition exudes joy of life, directness, and artistic immediacy – a tribute to color itself and an optimistic statement for any collection.

His artistically talented mother struggled through the final phase of the war with her son to West Berlin, where the two settled after the war. There, Keil grew up in the working-class district of Berlin-Wedding and soon developed an interest in painting—particularly in expressionist artists and the works of Pablo Picasso. The painter Otto Nagel, originally from East Berlin, became his mentor around 1954 and taught him initial craft skills and painting techniques.
