"FRYSIL III". 1992.
Gouache.
Signed in bottom center. Once more signed on the reverse, as well as dated and titled. On firm smooth cardboard. 69.7 x 100 cm (27.4 x 39.3 in), the full sheet.
This work is part of a work group with works made in the same scheme, in which Karl Otto Götz worked black cardboards or black-primed backgrounds with the squeegee (cf. lot no. 752). [EH].
We would like to thank Mr. Joachim Lissmann, K.O. Götz and Rissa Foundation, for his kind expert advice. The work will be included in the forthcoming catalogue raisonné of works by K.O. Götz, compiled by the Stiftung Informelle Kunst and the K.O. Götz und Rissa-Stiftung.
PROVENANCE: Rissa-Götz Collection (with the stamp on the reverse)
Private collection Baden-Württemberg.
Karl Otto Götz is one of the most important representatives of Informalism in Germany. He was the first German artist to join the artists' group "CoBrA" and founded the revolutionary Frankfurt "Quadriga" together with the painters Bernard Schultze, Otto Greis and Heinz Kreutz in 1952. Götz's oeuvre is characterized by a combination of intuition and control. Through this combination, he created expressive works such as the present work which has a fascinating effect due to a dynamic yet balanced composition. Under the impression of a trip to Scandinavia, he created a series of works with titles in Norwegian. Without any direct reference to content, they refer to rivers, lakes, waterfalls, islands or city names in slightly different spelling.
In good condition. Minimally rubbed in places.
