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. His works are today represented in multiple private collections around the world.

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

"There is in Ralf Altrieth's painting a generosity that has its own language, imagery and color, without turning color into a creed, funny without being caricatural, joyful without idealism, energetic without being thunderous, in short, a deeply humane language."
— Bernard Pignero, writer

"The eye must rebound, cling, detach; it is captured by color, by the energy of gesture, by strange cohabitations, by the musical rhythms of jazz where Ralf Altrieth also operates as a saxophonist, a devotee of improvisation."
— Stéphane Cerri, journalist
