Lot Details
Acrylic on fibreboard , in the artist's original frame. Monogrammed, dated and titled on the reverse. Including the artist frame: 119 x 139 cm.
[AR].

• Extraordinarily large and in her typical intense palette: Xenia Hausner stages the objects in her still lifes as if they were artificially illuminated film stills.
• Fragments of a narrative: the title seems to refer to the dance hall “Clärchens Ballhaus” in Berlin, or is it the room of a girl named Klärchen?
• The Austrian artist is considered one of the most important figurative painters of our time.
• Most recently, her works were exhibited in a major solo show at the Albertina, Vienna, in 2021.
Galerie Thomas, Munich. Private collection, Northern Germany (acquired from the above in 2000)
In good condition. With very isolated tiny brown spots, also affecting the frame. The frame has small nicks and chips in the paint, as well as a crack in the wood in the upper right. The condition report was compiled in daylight with the help of a UV light source and to the best of our knowledge and belief.
