“THE TIMES THEY ARE A CHANGIN’”

2016

Dimensions: 90” X 60”

Medium: Axalta Cromax AT on Aluminum

Artist: Peter Maier

A masterclass in duality, The Times They Are A Changin’ confronts the fluidity of identity, legacy, and time through the ever-shifting visage of Bob Dylan. In a single, surgically split portrait, Maier unites the rebel and the laureate, the folk prophet and the Nobel laureate—capturing not just a man, but a movement.

This is more than portraiture. It’s a meditation on transformation itself. Maier’s unparalleled command of industrial auto-paint—layered on aluminum to near-miraculous effect—creates an almost cinematic transition between youth and age. The tension between the two halves isn’t just visual—it’s emotional.

For the collector who values depth over decoration, and who understands that great art doesn't just depict change—it demands it.
