Minimalismus
Britisches Postwar – Eines von 25 Exemplaren. - Hg. Walter Storms Galerie, München. - Gedruckt bei Ekkeland Götze, München. - Das auf der vorliegenden Serigraphie dargestellte dreigeteilte Dreieck gehört zu den zentralen Bildformeln Alan Charltons, der sein gesamtes Werk auf die Farbe Grau und einige wenige geometrische Grundformen reduzierte. Sein Bekenntnis "I am an artist who makes a grey painting" (Charlton) formuliert den Charakter seines Werkes und drückt sich auch im vorliegenden Motiv aus: Das Dreieick wird durch horizontale Zwischenräume in drei Segmente gegliedert und lässt sich so sowohl als Einheit als auch als Addition von Teilen wahrnehmen.
British Post War – Minimalism. - Silkscreen print on vellum. Signed, dated and numbered. - A few isolated small, very faint and barely noticeable creases. Overall in very good and clean condition. A magnificent, richly coloured and high-contrast print of the geometric composition with a wide margin. - One of 25 copies. - Published by Walter Storms Galerie, Munich. - Printed by Ekkeland Götze, Munich. - The three-part triangle depicted in this silkscreen print is one of Alan Charlton's central visual motifs, he reduced his entire body of work to the colour grey and a few basic geometric shapes. His statement, 'I am an artist who makes a grey painting' (Charlton), encapsulates the character of his work and is also reflected in this motif: the triangle is divided into three segments by horizontal gaps and can thus be perceived both as a single unit and as a sum of its parts.
