Galerie Karsten Greve has entrusted Communic’Art 
with the creation of a catalogue for Christel 
Rosenfeld’s exhibition, Reliefs 1990-2007, which 
took place from July 19th to August 30th 2008.

The German artist Christel Rosenfeld brings together
a collection of 25 “wood reliefs”.

She shapes her reliefs 
from cut wood elements that she then assembles in 
sculptural form.

She chooses as elements of these 
paintings, different shaped pieces of wood, which she 
paints in tempura and oil resin.

The pictorial process envelops the painting, and no element is spared, uniting them with this latter.

The
 materiality of the painting’s structure, the pronounced 
structure of certain wood pieces that remain visible 
through layers of paint, is an important part of her 
artistic intention.
