Ralf Altrieth - Autrement que prévu - XXL

Ralf Altrieth draws and paints here with great spontaneity. The forms are deliberately simple, the outlines direct, the colors bold, as if the figures had been discovered rather than invented. Behind this apparent simplicity lies, however, a genuine sense of rhythm: the figures respond to each other, overlap, or seem to float around one another. The imaginary figures give the whole a poetic, almost dreamlike dimension. There is something joyful and slightly offbeat in the composition, which leaves the viewer with a great freedom of interpretation. The work thus exudes a particularly warm presence. It attracts with its colors and its immediately recognizable figures, then holds the gaze with its inventiveness and its small details. In a contemporary interior, they provide a free, playful, and poetic artistic note, never losing the singular gesture of Ralf Altrieth.

From the crucible of improvisation, he brings forth a world intact, made of spontaneous joys and strong impulses." — Dr Friedhelm Häring, art historian and museum director "His gesture-and-color writing describes a world open to new voices and to experiments never attempted. His canvases and works on paper demonstrate that painting remains a major form of expression on the contemporary scene." — Laurent Puech, art historian and curator MARGES: The indicated dimensions correspond to the work once mounted on a stretcher.
