It will be shipped in 3 boxes, each 130 x 85 x 11 cm, with a volume weight of 25 kg each. In the » Museum Shop Paintings« Peter Vahlefeld employs one of the most popular image distribution systems of modernity: the packaging of art in the form of museum shop merchandise. In this case he brings Goya’s iconic painting »El Quitasol« as a 7 piece self-adhesive file label, purchased at the Prado museum shop, into the present. Art caught in the dialectics of the cultural asset as a consumer object which is being interpreted in entirely new ways. Peter Vahlefeld rejects the assumption that icons must remain fixed and immutable. By embracing their manipulation, the artist asserts his fascination with the meaning of images, and to examine art as a construct.

Germany
Peter Vahlefeld's visceral artworks combine a rigorous, process-based practice, continually rethinking the possibilities of painting. Using references to a broad array of sources, including art history, literature, and pop culture, he creates paintings that alternate between flat experience and dimensionality. Perfectly poised between European and American traditions (Art Informel, Abstract Expressionism, Pop Art), his work combines complexity into a visual richness that is neither figurative nor abstract. The paintings unfold in an intricate, unpredictable interaction of layers and excess—a constant juggling of paint, prints, fabrics, mediums and effect. They draw their actuality from the collision between the visual codes of mass media and the subjective traces of painterly expression. Peter Vahlefeld has participated in a variety of solo exhibitions, art fairs, and venues such as Neumeister Fine Art Auctioneers (Munich), and Sotheby's (Vienna). His work can be found in private and corporate collections throughout Europe, the United States and Asia. Peter Vahlefeld was featured on the German television channel ZDF. He currently lives in Berlin.
