Originals in this selection, Expressionism, Material Acrylic, 5,000 to 10,000 euro.
Formats from 120 x 150 to 140 x 190 cm.
Heavy contours, bright breaks
Expressionist pictures throw color onto the surface like a feeling, unsmoothed and direct. Expressionism in acrylic for 5,000 to 10,000 euro is a strong original with plenty of body and swing, and these paintings for sale make that easy to see.
Expressionism relies on glaring contrasts and broken tones. In acrylic those contrasts stay sharp because the layers do not run into one another. Dark contours can be pulled across wet areas without fraying. Up close you see that harshness and tenderness often stand side by side: a knife slash next to a wafer-thin glaze.

Strong pictures need room
Large expressionist canvases in particular need space around them. A free wall or a passage room works better than a shelf zone. If you receive guests, such pictures give you a conversation piece at once.
Placing the band
At 5,000 to 10,000 euro, originals often lie beyond a first purchase: large, mature, with a documented résumé. Ask when the picture was made and whether it has already been shown in an exhibition.
