Steven H. Rehfeld'Coastal' by Steven H. Rehfeld - Colorful Diptych Contemporary Abstract 2003
2003
About the Item
Steven H. Rehfeld's 24" x 48" diptych, "Coastal," captivates viewers with its masterful dance of colors and shapes. Each panel exudes an abstract, yet harmonious representation of nature's myriad landscapes. In one, we are greeted by soft lilacs, tranquil blues, and earthy beiges, reminiscent of a serene shoreline. On the other, vivacious hues of orange, punchy reds, and cool blues interplay, evoking the vibrant life and colors of a bustling cove.
Stylistically, the pieces are a testament to Rehfeld's prowess in combining fluidity with form. His use of winding shapes bordered by deliberate sketch-like lines evokes the undulating ebb and flow of water, while also grounding the artwork with a sense of structure.
The similarities in the use of pastel palettes create a cohesive visual narrative, effectively bridging the two panels. Yet, the distinct color variations between the two paintings offer a delightful contrast. The former leans towards muted, calming tones, while the latter revels in its energetic and lively colors.
About the Artist:
Steven is now one of the top emerging artists in the U.S. His works are groundbreaking, bold, and imbued with unflinching disregard for painting conventions. Many works are in collections and museums in the U.S.
Steven is also part of the 'Outsiders' school of art, originating in France in the 19th century. Also known as the Naïve movement, and was comprised of people with no art training at all, who suddenly started to paint. Many of them are from very challenging backgrounds. All they had was talent that had never before been tapped. In no time this movement became a significant art phenomenon and spread all over the world.
His work, however, has branched out past the movement and his use of earth elements renders a basic and raw interpretation of his message.

Steven H. Rehfeld
Steven H. Rehfeld, a California artist, holds a B.A. in studio art from the University of California, Santa Barbara. He draws inspiration from the 'Outsiders' school of art that originated in 19th-century France, known as the Naïve movement. Also referred to as the Naïve or Primitive art movement, was comprised of artists with no formal art training who discovered their talent and began painting. Many of these artists came from challenging backgrounds, and their raw talent remained untapped until they expressed themselves through art. The movement quickly gained prominence and spread worldwide. Steven Rehfeld's artistic style has evolved beyond the Naïve movement, incorporating earth elements to create a basic and raw interpretation of his artistic message.

Artist Statement "My oil, acrylic, and mixed media paintings explore the dynamic relationship between progressiveness and tradition, personal and cultural experiences, and the interplay between the human form and iconography. Through these explorations, I engage in a dialogue that reveals how the intangible influences the material world. Color contrast forms, negative/positive space, and visual kinetic energy shape these artistic relationships. Additionally, I fuse abstract art with elements of realism to create a unique artistic experience."
