Paul Waak is happy to show you his work. Drawings, paintings and sculptures explore the radical bliss of today. Through a process of obsessive repetition, digital deformation and recombination Waak develops intuitive metaphors for existential truths. Fond memories and immediate intimacy, violence and innocence, the endless potential of what is yet to come.
Does this make you happy?
Upon form submission, artists are acknowledging acceptance of the following terms and conditions:
§1 TERMS OF AGREEMENT
This event is open to artists globally. Artists are eligible to submit one piece of their own artwork. The sales agreement comes into effect when Weserhalle successfully auctions the artwork. Until such a sale, the artwork remains in the artist’s possession. Should a sale occur, Weserhalle will retain a commission of 50% of the final price.
§2 SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS
Artists are invited to submit artwork of any size, subject to a non-refundable entry fee of ten euros. However, any artwork with a dimension exceeding 80 cm will only be eligible for online presentation. For artworks over 80 cm, a high-quality photo emailed to us will suffice for both submission and online presentation. In special cases, we may request the physical artwork for the exhibition, though providing it will remain entirely optional for the artist. Artists are responsible for ensuring the accuracy of their submitted information, as inaccurate details could result in disqualification. Weserhalle reserves the right to refuse artworks based on physical inspection.

§7 PRICING AND SALES POLICY

Artists are not allowed to bid on their own work. In case of violation of this norm, the artist will owe Weserhalle 50% of their artwork’s estimated value.
