ABOUT THE ARTWORK
THE SEA INSIDE US Triptych 2015 acrylic and oil on canvas 375 (w) x 150 (h) cm LARGE-SIZED PAINTINGS. LARGE-SIZED TRIOLOGY AS TRIPTYCH. I share the opinion of the famous Norwegian painter Edvard Munch (1863-1944), that paintings contain not only a creative message as single piece. You can look at them also in a major conceptional context. This triology THE SEA INSIDE US combines three new and essential of my works from aesthetic standpoints as well as with regard to contents: The Morning – The Day – The Evening. Lights and colours during the day are different. There are commonalities, but every phase of the day 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, summer (although I love the hibernal sea too), sand, waves, neverending noises of brakers and sea gulls, salt in the mouth and at the skin. Warmth, wanderlust and downtime. The sea deeply touches in its nativeness, autarchy, also destructiveness and its existence from the beginning to the end of all times. Everyone of us ties his own stories with the sea. The triology combines following works and should "read" from left to right: THE MORNING: "TRUE AT FIRST LIGHT" acrylic and oil on canvas, 2015, 120 (w) x 150 (h) x 2 cm THE DAY: "MY HOUSE AT THE SEA" acrylic and oil on canvas, 2014, 120 (w) x 150 (h) x 2 cm THE EVENING: "THE LIGHT BETWEEN THE OCEANS" arylic and oil on canvas, 2014, 120 (w) x 150 (h) x 2 cm * * * * All of these paintings also for sale as single pieces here at Saatchi. This triology offers a price advantage in comparision to the summarized single selling prices. For further information about the specific topic of each artwork please visit the pages of the 3 single paintings at Saatchi. * * * * This piece is a true LARGE-SIZED TRIOLOGY. For a large-scale, aesthetic and colourful impression on your wall AND as my authentic and personal artwork with an artistic subsurface message. I use exclusively oil and acrylic colours, canvas and wooden frames in a professional museum quality. The three paintings wear my signature on the front and they are signed, entitled and dated on the backside. Deliberately the sides (about 2 cm wide) are not part of the paintings and show the “naked” white canvas with few paint splatters (as typical for professional original paintings). 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. The piece will be safely shipped in a custom wooden crate. It will be accompanied by a certificate of authenticity and a cover letter and my poems (written for the three paintings) as an additional part of the artwork. This triology contains 3 single paintings, each in acrylic and oil on canvas and with dimensions of 120 (w) x 150 (h) cm. I prefer a hanging distance each of 7,5 cm between the 3 single paintings. All paintings need a single hanging (no backside connections between the paintings). Complete dimensions of this artwork, including the hanging space between the single paintings: 375 (w) x 150 (h) x 2cm. Please note: In context pictures are not necessarily to scale and are for illustrative purposes only. If you have any questions about this triptych or any other piece, feel free to contact me and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can. Warm wishes, Christian

Christian Bahr
Germany
CHRISTIAN BAHR has been a passionate, profound contemporary German painter and experienced draftsman for over 35 years. His large abstract 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."
