Pop Art – Lechleiter G 1969.1. - Eines von 100 Exemplaren. - Gedruckt bei Birkle + Thomer, Berlin. - Hg. Industriemesse-Gesellschaft, Berlin 1969. - In der vorliegenden Komposition konzentriert Werner Berges sein visuelles Interesse erneut auf die weibliche Figur als Zeichen und Bildobjekt. Durch klare Konturen und satte Farbflächen verwandelt er die Darstellung in ein Portrait mit Einflüssen von Werbung und Medienästhetik. Die Wahl der Polyesterfolie als ungewöhnliches Druckträger-Material verleiht der Arbeit eine glatte, technisch wirkenden Oberfläche und betont den industriellen Charakter der Pop Art.

Pop Art – Colour serigraph on polyester foil. Signed, dated and numbered. - Verso with partial rubbing. Very good overall. Splendid impression, the colours fresh and intense. - Lechleiter G 1969.1. - One of 100 copies. - Ed. Industriemesse-Gesellschaft, Berlin 1969. - In the present composition, Werner Berges once again focuses his visual interest on the female figure as a sign and pictorial object. Using clear contours and rich colour areas, he transforms the depiction into a portrait with influences from advertising and media aesthetics. The choice of polyester film as an unusual printing support material gives the work a smooth, technical-looking surface and emphasises the industrial character of Pop Art.
