Christian Lemmerz2026
Madonna
Acrylic on canvas
86 x 105 cm.
In Madonna, Christian Lemmerz engages with a classical art-historical subject through a raw and expressive visual language. The female figure emerges through layers of grey and black brushwork, while circular, radiating lines around her head evoke the traditional halo. Her face is constructed through forceful, almost sculptural strokes, and the restrained palette creates a striking tension between the iconic subject and the painting’s tactile surface.
This artwork is presented here as part of a small selection. Please reach out to us for access to a showroom with all available artworks.
