Contemporary artist and muralist Rafael Gerlach, also know as SatOne, launched yesterday a new print in occasion of “MIRROR CABINET“, his new solo show at Galerie Openspace in Paris for which he created a completely new body of work as a result of his constant research for new pictorial expressions.
Working mostly out of Munich, Rafael Gerlach’s paintings make an impression on the world of abstract art through a self-reflexive exploration of color, shape, and distortion with works that are a self-proclaimed divorce from any sort of art movement in the art historical canon. His work introduces us to abstract patterns that comprise a certain three-dimensional element engaging our sense of perspective.
“MACRO 31018”, which introduces us to an exciting new and experimental body of work, comes in a limited edition of 30, measures 50 x 40 cm on Archival Pigment print on Hahnemühle / 350gr. Signed and numbered by the artist, “MACRO 31018” is available HERE for 80 EUR each.
“MIRROR CABINET“at Galerie Openspace opened to the public last Saturday and will be on view until December 1st, 2018.
About the artist
Rafael Gerlach aka SatOne, was born in Venezuela in 
1977 from German parents. At the age of two he and his family moved back to Munich where he currently lives and works. After starting out in graffiti in the 90s, then training as a graphic designer a few years later, he gradually developed a twofold field of exploration combining abstraction and colour, and revealing an introspective reflection that connects the work of art and the spectator. Self-proclaimed independent artist, SatOne prefers to not be confined to any movement, and regards his studio as an experimental laboratory where he gives shape to a rich, free aesthetic which is open to personal analysis.
