Elvira Bach is known for her powerful, vividly coloured visual language and her iconic motifs. “Sunflower”, created in 1995, showcases the characteristic interplay of expressive gesture and striking form that defines her work. As a representative of the “Young Wild Ones,” she created powerful, neo-expressionist portraits of women, characterized by vibrant colours, energetic brushstrokes, and autobiographical directness. The sunflower does not appear as a botanical still life, but rather as a radiant symbol of vitality and self-assured presence. This striking, large-format screen print captivates with its luminous and immediate visual impact.
