작품 상세

"Iris". Oil on canvas. 1989. 220 x 200 cm. Signed, dated, titled, and numbered "B 191", in black ink on the verso. From 1972 - 1978 Rainer Fetting studied under Hans Jaenisch at the Hochschule für Künste in Berlin. In 1977, with Helmut Middendorf, Salomé and Bernd Zimmer, he founded the Gallery on Moritzplatz in Berlin. In his artwork Fetting continuously returns to the theme of the city (mostly Berlin), as well as portraits. He usually depicts nudes or still lifes, which he imbues with bright colors and incredible expressivity. The monumental Iris offered here is also depicted in this same energetic style, painted with intense contrasts between the strong red and violet tones. Framed.
