ZERO

Online - Photographie - Moderne Photographie – Provenienz: Berliner Privatsammlung. - Die Photographien Charles Wilps zeigen einen entleerten, kaum zu definierenden Raum wie einen Outer Space - Richtungen und Begrenzungen scheinen nicht erkennbar - es ist der Blick in die Leere. Die Leere als Idee an sich bzw. als Raum, der mit Ideen gefüllt werden kann gehen auf Wilps Verständnis der Konzeptkunst zurück. - Ohne die Photographien, die Yves Klein darstellen.

Online - Photography - Modern Photography – 10 works. Each b/w silver gelatine print on canvas (4 works) or on paper laminated over the entire surface on wooden panel (6 works). Each signed, dated (some with hours and minutes) and titled on the verso. Few works inscribed. - With localised stains, rubbing and surface scratches, also on the verso. 2 works each with colour abrasion and retouching. 1 work with small tear and loss of material in one corner. Overall still good. High-contrast impressions. - Provenance: Berlin private collection. - Charles Wilp's photographs show an empty, barely definable space like an outer space - directions and boundaries seem unrecognisable - it is the view into the void. The void as an idea in itself or as a space that can be filled with ideas goes back to Wilp's understanding of conceptual art. - Without the photographs depicting Yves Klein.
