Alain Kleinmann Oil painting and mixed media 80 x 65 cm without frame 84 x 100 cm framed Alain Kleinmann is a true master in capturing the time flow within beautiful painting and installations. his unique approach to art is both sensorial and conceptual, expressed through complex pieces that feature high historical content and extremely rich textures.
