The secret bond that connects everything is a combination of appearance and perception, which Mauel has devoted herself to studying during her artistic career. Whether the subject be dancers, cityscapes, landscapes, or pure expression, Mauel has exemplified herself as an expert in the acute perception of ephemeral moments.

Mauel created this one-of-a-kind 40 inch tall by 32 inch wide painting by using vibrant red oil on canvas to capture the movement of her subject and added refined minimalist lines in black graphite to indicate the body with a balanced subtlety. The artwork is framed in a thin white modern wood frame. It is signed and dated by the artist on the front, lower right corner. Size and price include frame. Free local Los Angeles area delivery and free professional installation in the local Los Angeles area is included, including placement and hardware. Affordable Continental U.S. and worldwide shipping is available. A certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery is included.

Bettina Mauel was born 1959 in Wuppertal, Germany. She studied at the Düsseldorf Art Academy with Gerhard Richter, one of the most important artists of the 20th century. In 1984 Mauel was asked by the city of Wuppertal, Germany to paint scenes of the dance theater of Pina Bausch. This had a major influence on the selection of themes in her imagery. Rather than focusing on spectacular poses, she pays acute attention to the spontaneous movements in-between, capturing a resonating rush of color and form. These impromptu paintings combine a long tradition of Eastern scroll painting, expressionist sketch, and fashion illustration.

Bettina Mauel lives in Cologne, Germany. She has presented her work in numerous exhibitions throughout Europe, North America, and Asia. Her art has been acquired by many notable public institutions. See less
