• Our work is a wonderful example of Lüpertz’ spontaneous, gestural painting, which oscillates between figuration and abstraction.
• In the mid-1990s the "Otello" pictures were created, which portray the male face in frontal view and with an extremely expressive physiognomy.
• One of the most famous contemporary German artists
• Several large retrospectives of his work have been shown in recent years.
This work's authenticity has kindly been confirmed by the Atelier Markus Lüpertz.
PROVENANCE: Private collection Baden-Württemberg.
"The spot begins to live. It takes on a shape, a form, becomes a different color, an examination, suddenly it becomes memory of and answer to an existing picture, it can react to Pollock, to Picasso, or become something entirely new. It can become something random or something certain. My job is merely my method and intensity." (Quote from: Markus Lüpertz, Gemälde – Skulpturen, Düsseldorf 1996, p. 160).
