ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Acrylic, acrylic based medium, UV protection, oil, varnish, gold, aluminium, copper pigments, fabrics on printed canvas. The artwork comes ready to hang. Titel of the painting: Post-War and Contemporary Art, New York. The basis for these artworks in Fritz Hansen’s Showroom are overpainted auction catalogue pages, advertising Post-War and Contemporary Art Evening Sales in New York and London. Representation is important, if only as something to be rejected or to be painted over. The painting process is physical and visceral with a focus on materiality, texture, and mark making—a negotiation between paint, surfaces, and the forces of a rhythm that is trying to communicate a marketing campaign through the composition.

Peter Vahlefeld's visceral artworks combine a rigorous, process-based practice, continually rethinking the possibilities of painting. The act and idea of »building« the paintings encapsulates his multi-tiered approach to each piece that unfold in an intricate, unpredictable interaction of layers and excess—a constant juggling of paint, prints, fabrics, and effect to enhance the capacity of the surface. Using references to a broad array of sources, including art history, literature, and pop culture, he creates paintings that alternate between flat experience and dimensionality. Perfectly poised between European and American traditions (Art Informel, Abstract Expressionism, Pop Art), they draw their actuality from the collision between the visual codes of mass media and the subjective traces of painterly expression and combine complexity into a visual richness that is neither figurative nor abstract. Peter Vahlefeld has participated in a variety of solo exhibitions, art fairs, and venues such as Neumeister Fine Art Auctioneers (Munich), Sotheby's (Vienna), Fritz Hansen (Denmark) and Allianz Art Collection. His work can be found in private and corporate collections throughout Europe, the United States and Asia. Peter Vahlefeld was featured on the German television channel ZDF, and currently works in Berlin and Munich.
