Der Strichcode des Lebens (The Barcode of Life)- The Hans Braun Collection
Several other works from the collection are available in our simultaneous online sale (ends December 15, 2024).
• This is one of the scarce paintings in which Uecker drove sharp stones instead of nails through the support.
• “Where language fails, the image begins” (Uecker).
Dynamics, hardness, calm, and contemplation: By combining seemingly opposing elements, Uecker creates a unique aesthetic.
• Nature and art: Uecker's oeuvre, which is characterized by its timeless, archaic aura, is closely interwoven with the immediacy and dynamics of natural impressions.
This work is registered in the Uecker Archive under the number GU.96.035 and is earmarked for inclusion in the Uecker catalogue raisonné that is currently in preparation.
