About the Item

This large-scale acrylic abstract painting by Alice Teichert evokes images of time and space. Visible energy appears to pulsate across the canvas in this provocative painting by one of Canada’s finest abstract artists. What appears as a central energy field—a fluid band rendered in translucent dark layers with soft rays of white pigment filtering through is set against fields of deep blue and rosy pink. Teichert’s signature layers of paint give this ethereal painting remarkable depth. Curated markings—elegant lines and the addition of several dots (a favourite motif) in bright colours create focal points that draw the eye. Clean horizontal borders in bright blue and orange frame the work. The complex lacework of soulful elements in Alice Teichert’s art is rooted in a life spent embracing the arts—playing music, writing and drawing. Alice’s mother was an accomplished pianist, and once, while she was playing, an artist and family friend encouraged a 12-year-old Alice to draw the sound of her mother’s music. Teichert’s own poetic visual language is designed to evoke emotion and invite the viewer into another world. “You will notice a lot of dots in my work and that is the first thing I learned how to read (in music), so depending on where it's placed, it has the chance to tell another story…to attract our attention.” Alice Teichert Alice Teichert was born in Paris, France, in 1959. She studied music, philosophy and visual arts in Belgium and France. Teichert’s degree in printmaking and subsequent work solidified a lifelong fascination with text, another signature element of her artwork. Teichert moved to North America in the mid-1980s, living between New York City and Toronto. There, she met some of the most respected abstract expressionist artists of the time, including Jules Olitski and Kenneth Noland. Helen Frankenthaler, a major player in the history of American post-war painting, was highly regarded for her spontaneous approach and fluid, lyrical style and became a mentor to Teichert. Since 1989, Alice Teichert has built an international career with over 40 solo exhibitions in Canada, France, Switzerland, Germany and Australia. The recipient of numerous awards, in 2024, she was inducted into the prestigious Royal Academy of Canadian Arts (RCA) in recognition of her exceptional contribution to the visual arts. Alice Teichert’s paintings are held in many private, corporate and public collections worldwide.
