About The Artwork

DEEP BLUE DAYS DOWN BY THE SEA quadriptych 2019 acrylic and oil on canvas horizontal hanging (4 paintings side by side in one line): 540 (w) x 150 (h) x 4 cm / 212,6 (w) x 59,1 (h) x 1,6 inch* vertical hanging (2 paintings side by side in two lines on top of each other): 260 (w) x 320 (h) x 4 cm / 102,4 (w) x 125,9 (h) x 1,6 inch* (*with a hanging distance each of 7,9 in / 20 cm between the single paintings) * * * STATEMENT-PIECE TWO HANGING OPTIONS: HORIZONTAL OR VERTICAL HANGING 4 LARGE-SIZED PAINTINGS AS QUADRIPTYCH This quadrilogy is inspired by the sea as a never-ending melancholic, bittersweet but beautiful and poetical inspiration. Early in the morning – at noontime – in the evening hours – at night. Down by the sea, lights and colors, wind speed and directions are very different during the day and during the seasons. There are commonalities, but every phase stays independent und has its very own feelings. The sea was, is and always will be a major place of longing for humans. The numeration is almost limitless: brightness, the Azure and deep blue layers, summer (although I love the hibernal sea too), sand, waves, never-ending noises of breakers and sea gulls, salt in the mouth and at the skin. Wanderlust and downtime. It is the quiet life down by the oceanside. The sea deeply touches in its nativeness, autarchy, also destructiveness and its existence from the beginning to the end of all times. Every one of us ties his own stories with the sea. The quadriptych combines 4 pieces of my series of works with the title SUBZERO from aesthetic standpoints as well as with regard to contents and should "read" from left to right: first twilight brightens the sky: A LOVE SO DEEP THE OCEAN WOULD BE JEALOUS acrylic and oil on canvas, 2019 59,1 (h) x 47,2 (w) x 1,6 in / 150 (h) x 120 (w) x 4 cm promising tenderness in the morning: AS WIDE AND AS WAVERING AS THE OCEAN acrylic and oil on canvas, 2019 59,1 (h) x 47,2 (w) x 1,6 in / 150 (h) x 120 (w) x 4 cm golden hours at noontime: AS TIMES GO BY IN BEAUTY AND MELANCHOLIA acrylic and oil on canvas, 2014 59,1 (h) x 47,2 (w) x 1,6 in / 150 (h) x 120 (w) x 4 cm before the nightfall: LET THE OCEAN BRING ME BACK SOME MEMORIES OF YOU acrylic and oil on canvas, 2019 59,1 (h) x 47,2 (w) x 1,6 in / 150 (h) x 120 (w) x 4 cm * * * * This quadriptych is a true VERY LARGE-SIZED QUADRILOGY and a contemporary STATEMENT-PIECE. For a large-scale, aesthetic and colourful impression on your wall AND as my authentic and personal artwork with an artistic subsurface message. All 4 paintings are also for sale as single pieces here at Saatchi Art. For further information about the specific topic of each artwork and additional photos please visit the pages of the 4 single paintings at Saatchi Art. * * * This quadriptych contains 4 single paintings, each in acrylic and oil on canvas and with dimensions of 59,1 (h) x 47,2 (w) x 1,6 in / 150 (h) x 120 (w) x 4 cm. I prefer a hanging distance each of 7,9 in / 20 cm between the 4 single paintings. You have the option of two very different but impressive and beautiful hanging methods: VERTICAL HANGING - 2 paintings side by side in two lines on top of each other - very creative and individual hanging method if your room offers adequate ceiling height. The complete dimension (including the hanging space between the 2 paintings side by side and between the two lines on top of each other): 320 (h) x 260 (w) x 4 cm / 126 (h) x 102,4 (w) x 1,6 in HORIZONTAL HANGING - 4 paintings side by side in one line - more traditional but also very beautiful hanging method of the quadriptych. The complete dimension (including the hanging space between the 4 paintings): 540 (w) x 150 (h) x 4 cm / 212,6 (w) x 59,1 (h) x 1,6 in * * * I use exclusively oil and acrylic colors, canvas and solid wooden frames in a professional museum quality. The 4 paintings wear my signature on the front and they are signed, entitled and dated on the backside. Deliberately the XL-sides/edges (1,6 in / 4 cm wide) are not part of the paintings and show the black painted canvas (beautiful contrast). The paintings are ready to hang (on the backsides: high-quality iron plates with metal inserts and nylon rope for gallery use), unframed and don’t need a frame or any additional surface treatment. All paintings have a single hanging (no backside connections between the paintings). The artwork (4 paintings) will be safely shipped in a custom wooden crate. It will be accompanied by a cover letter and a certificate of authenticity. Please note: In context pictures are not necessarily to scale and are for illustrative purposes only. If you have any questions about this quadriptych or any other piece, feel free to contact me and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can. Thanks so much for taking an interest in my work. * * * NOTE: I work also on COMMISSION. So if you need a large-sized statement-piece in different dimensions, please contact the Saatchi Art team. Warm wishes, Christian

CHRISTIAN BAHR has been a passionate, profound German painter and experienced draftsman for over 35 years, selling his works worldwide. His works can currently be found in private collections and public spaces in the US, Mexico, Canada, UK, China, Thailand, Australia, Spain, Portugal, Belgium, Germany, Poland, Malta, Sweden, Russia, Ukraine and Belarus. His atmospheric large paintings are poetry and artistic struggle at the same time. They capture both harmony and conflict, overall reflecting a strong aesthetic. He has participated in many national and international exhibitions. What he believes in: ........................................................................... “Not everything is art. But art is everything and everything breathes art in one way or another. Art is the true beauty of mankind.” ........................................................................... “I work in my studio nearby the big German coastal city of Hamburg, on the North sea. I’m a seeker as a painter, in search of answers. The single human takes center stage. I work constantly, with great passion and discipline on my further artistic way. I have a clear, strong painting philosophy. And I deal with philosophical, mythological as well as with historical subjects in my works.” ........................................................................... “I go my own way in my paintings. I find the source for my inspiration in me. Spontaneous action is the key, my preferred method. I work intuitively and in most cases without previous sketches, because I do not need a creative distance, I only reduce the view of our surroundings. Added value and clarity through abstraction. It must be rough, original, melancholic, dark, and yet at the same time bright, poetic, clear and full of hope. No maybe, no lukewarm. Every moment counts. That's exactly how I paint." ........................................................................... “Painting is a beauty, soul and passion, but sometimes fighting. A fight with myself, an endless struggle for colors and motif in my own conversation, as a rough internal dialogue. There are these days and nights, when I fight for every single brushstroke, when I question every color scheme. But it is good it is not always easy. Because each artistic battle is worthwhile and shows that I am - as an artist - still alive, breathing and developing.“ ...........................................................................
