Shot Painting

As variable and a prototype of a man in modern busines world David Rothenfels himself represents his caracter in his paintings. Therefore he cannot offed nobody. His paintings comment manifold. But they are not superfial or flat but musterious and suggestive. David Rothenfels dares to approach the big topics. Always with the same figure, a modern business man type of person, David Rothenfels reinterprets provocatively the last supper of Leonard da Vinci and the depicted actions. Men flirting with rockets we already know from real life. David Rothenfels paints the facade of modern society, beauty ideals, fashion, business life... His paintings depict the world behind this facade in a surreal world. His glance is pure and sharp. The transition in his paintings alike. Ute Wöllmann, Head of Akademie, Berlin Berlin, Januar 2019
