Peter Gourfain Monumental Sculptural Mixed Media Wall Relief (1999)

A commanding and architecturally significant monumental mixed media wall relief by Peter Gourfain, dated 1999, distinguished by its extraordinary depth and sculptural presence.
 
Measuring an impressive 63 inches high with an 18-inch projection, this work transcends traditional painting to function as a fully immersive wall-mounted installation. Built through dense layers of impasto, painted materials, and constructed elements, the surface becomes a richly dimensional landscape of color and form.
 
Explosive tones of crimson, cobalt, ochre, and emerald are applied in thick, expressive accumulations, forming intricate patterns and tactile rhythms across the composition. A dramatic central protrusion extends boldly into space, creating shifting shadows and a constantly evolving visual experience depending on light and perspective.
 
This is a piece designed not just to be viewed—but to activate a space, making it ideal for high-end interiors, contemporary architecture, and curated design environments.
A handwritten inscription dated 1999 referencing Chicago adds a personal and historical dimension, reinforcing the work’s authenticity and narrative.
 
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a museum-scale sculptural wall work with true physical presence—where painting, relief, and installation converge.
