Hier zudem gewidmet und mit Richtungspfeil versehen.Dieses Werk ist im Uecker Archiv unter der Nummer GU.90.016 registriert und wird vorgemerkt für die Aufnahme in das entstehende Uecker-Werkverzeichnis.Provenienz:- Privatsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen (direkt vom Künstler)- Eines der gefragten, besonders dichten Nagelfelder mit bewegter Oberfläche- Titel gibt Assoziationen auf Naturereignisse preis, die das Werk wunderbar nahbar und emotional erfahrbar machen- Seit seiner Entstehung in rheinischem PrivatbesitzDie Anfänge"Poesie wird mit dem Hammer gemacht." Dieses Motto des russischen Dichters Wladimir Majakowski (1893-1930) hat sich Günther Uecker früh zu eigen gemacht. Eindrucksvoll unterstrichen hat er seine Devise 1969 mit einem Auflagen-Objekt, bestehend aus einer Holzplatte, in die er zwei Nägel einschlug und daran einen Hammer aufhängte. Der Titel: "Do it yourself". Als 23-Jähriger war Uecker 1953 aus der DDR nach West-Berlin geflüchtet. Zwei Jahre später ließ er sich in Düsseldorf nieder, um bei Otto Pankok an der Kunstakademie zu studieren. Seit 1957 ist der Hammer sein wohl wichtigstes Werkzeug, der Nagel das unverkennbare Signet seiner Kunst. 1961 schließt er sich der 1958 von Heinz Mack und Otto Piene initiierten ZERO-Bewegung an, die sich 1966 einvernehmlich mit einer gemeinsamen Ausstellung wieder auflöste. Schon früh ist Günther Uecker international erfolgreich. Bedeutende Museen sammeln bereits in den 1960er Jahren seine Werke, nicht nur in Leverkusen, Krefeld, Düsseldorf oder Berlin. Auch das Museum of Modern Art in New York besitzt ein frühes weißes Nagelfeld aus dem Jahr 1964 - zu dieser Zeit eine große Ausnahme und ungewöhnliche Auszeichnung für einen deutschen Künstler.Das Ethos physischer Arbeit - "Do it yourself" - und die souveräne Beherrschung seiner Materialien prägt seit mehr als sechs Jahrzehnten sein unverwechselbares Oeuvre. Seine Herkunft - die Eltern waren Landwirte in Mecklenburg - hat Günther Uecker nie verleugnet, sondern vielmehr zur unerschöpflichen Quelle seiner künstlerischen Arbeit gemacht. Dazu gehören auch die Naturerfahrungen an der Ostsee, wo er auf der Halbinsel Wustrow aufwuchs. "Wie ein Bauer auf dem Feld" lautet der Titel eines dokumentarischen Filmporträts, das aus Anlass seines 60. Geburtstags entstand. "Jeder macht seine Felder", bemerkt er anerkennend, "und jeder ist darin auch erkennbar. Das ist wie ein Gebetsteppich, so ein Acker." (Zit. nach Günther Uecker, Poesie der Destruktion. Im Dialog mit Michael Kluth 1988-2018, Halle an der Saale 2018, S. 177.) Aber nicht nur auf die Elemente der Natur, auch auf historische Ereignisse und auf Katastrophen wie den Nuklearunfall von Tschernobyl hat Uecker mit seiner Kunst immer wieder mit seismografischer Sensibilität reagiert. "Weisser Wind"Das angebotene, großformatige Nagelbild "Weisser Wind" aus dem Jahr 1990 ist beispielhaft für die Werkgruppe der Nagelfelder. Diese wecken den Eindruck einer wogenden Bewegung, die das gesamte Feld erfasst und strukturiert - wie ein kräftiger Windstoß, der durch ein Getreidefeld fährt. Besonders markant sind in diesem Werk die lebhaften Hell-Dunkel-Kontraste: Nur die Köpfe der dunklen Metallstifte weisen Spuren weißer Farbe auf, während die Stifte selbst nicht farbig gefasst sind. Auch die über die Holztafel gespannte Leinwand ist nur in vereinzelten, schwungvollen Strichen mit weißer Farbe bemalt, was die naturhaft-organischen Assoziationen verstärkt. Der subtile Einsatz der Materialfarben steigert das meditative Spiel mit realem Licht und Schatten, das Ueckers Werk seit seinen Anfängen antreibt. Die Farbe Weiß, die in seinem Schaffen vorherrschend ist, dient vor allem dazu, das Licht einzufangen. Das wogende Nagelfeld bildet eine dreidimensionale Zone mit wechselnden Lichtverhältnissen. Bewegt man sich vor dem Nagelfeld und betrachtet es aus verschiedenen Blickwinkeln, entstehen immer wieder neue Perspektiven und Ansichten der reliefartigen Oberfläche. Die künstlerisch-experimentelle Auseinandersetzung mit dem Thema Wind reicht im Schaffen von Günther Uecker weit zurück. (Siehe Ralph Merten, Günther Uecker · Wind. 82 Liebesbriefe an die Natur · 82 love-letters to nature, Mainz 1995.) 1966 gibt er dem ersten Nagelobjekt den Titel "Großer Wind". Im gleichen Jahr entsteht für den Außenraum seine Skulptur "Windorgan", die eine quasi musikalische Funktion hat: Fünfzehn weiße, abgeschrägte Zylinder, die an Orgelpfeifen erinnern, sind an Metallstangen installiert und verstärken die natürlichen Windgeräusche. "Wind - 82 Liebesbriefe an die Natur" nannte er 1992 einen Zyklus von Aquarellen. Das angebotene Werk "Weißer Wind" ist der vollendete Ausdruck einer jahrzehntelangen Auseinandersetzung des Künstlers mit den elementaren Kräften der Natur. Mit seinen unverwechselbaren Instrumenten gelingt es ihm, das Flüchtige und Unsichtbare - den Wind und das Licht - ästhetisch zu bändigen und ihnen Dauer zu verleihen.Video: Expertin Hilke Hendriksen über die Werke von Günther Uecker Voraussichtliche Versandkosten für dieses Los: Absprache nach der Auktion.Erläuterungen zum Katalog Günther Uecker Deutschland ZERO Nachkriegskunst Objekte 1990er Nagel Objekt Mischtechnik Abstrakt

Bis 1968 wurde er zusammen mit seiner Frau Ursula zu einer festen Größe in der dortigen Kunstszene. Schultze war Mitbegründer der Gruppe Quadriga und stellte seit 1952 in der Zimmergalerie Franck aus. Seine ersten informellen Bilder entstanden 1951. Dank seiner regelmäßigen Besuche in Paris hatte er die Arbeiten von Wols, Dubuffet und Fautrier kennengelernt. Zu den früheren Inspirationsquellen gehörte neben Paul Klee und den Surrealisten auch der belgische Maler James Ensor, von dem er eine Publikation mit farbigen Abbildungen stets im Tornister dabeihatte, als er Soldat in Russland und Afrika war. Ensors Farben finden sich in Schultzes Gemälde "Penthesilea" wieder. Der Krieg hatte Bernard Schultze traumatisiert, und in seiner Kunst zeigt sich das deutlich. "Die düstere Seite, das Zerstörerische liegt mir sehr nahe, aber ich will es verwandeln in eine Kostbarkeit", schrieb er 1998 in einem Brief an den Sammler und Freund Willi Kemp. (Bernard Schultze: zit. nach "Gespräch mit Willi Kemp am 24.3.1998", in: Ausst.-Kat. Die Sammlung Ingrid und Willi Kemp, Stiftung museum kunst palast, Düsseldorf 2001, S. 121) "Penthesilea" ist eines der informellen Hauptwerke von Bernard Schultze. Es spiegelt die ganze Ambivalenz von Schultzes Malerei, in der sich Trauma und Optimismus auf vielschichtige Weise mischen. Anders als viele andere Gemälde aus dieser Zeit, die von einer einzigen Farbstimmung, etwa Rot, Blau oder sehr häufig auch verschiedenen Erdfarben dominiert werden, leuchten in "Penthesilea" äußerst fein und subtil gezeichnete Formen und Linien in Rosa- Gelb-, Hellblau und Weißtönen neben schwarzen Konfigurationen wie in einem üppig gewachsenen Garten. Schultzes Malweise war immer intuitiv, ohne Vorausplanung begann er seine Gemälde an irgendeinem Punkt auf der Leinwand und arbeitete langsam in alle Richtungen über die gesamte Bildfläche so lange, bis das Bild stimmte. Auch wenn er keine Gegenstände wiedergab, strahlten seine informellen Bilder doch eine starke, organische Körperlichkeit aus. Die Verwandtschaft zu Pflanzenformen, Wachstum und Verfall hob der Künstler selbst hervor: "Am Rande Frankfurts entstehen in einem Gemisch aus Kräutergärtlein und Hinterhof meine ersten informellen Bilder, gleichsam in Konkurrenz zu Fliederbusch und Apfelblütenbäumen." (Bernard Schultze in: Romain, Lothar und Wedewer, Rolf: Bernard Schultze. München, 1991, S. 13) "Penthesilea" ist ein besonders überzeugendes Beispiel für Schultzes Arbeitsweise.Malerei und LiteraturLiteratur war für Schultze ein ebenso wichtiges Bezugsfeld wie die Malerei. Er kannte die wesentlichen Werke seiner Zeitgenossen von Beckett bis Sartre, die Literatur der Surrealisten, und auch die Dichter der Romantik sowie die Klassische Dichtung seit der Antike. Seine Bildtitel sind sehr häufig poetisch und beziehen sich auf seine diverse Lektüre. Schultze wählte die Werktitel stets erst nach der Fertigstellung eines Gemäldes, und auch hier war das so. Penthesilea war in der griechischen Mythologie die Königin der Amazonen, Schultze kannte jedoch auch Heinrich von Kleists Drama nach diesem antiken Mythos. Das tragische Drama um den Tod der Penthesilea und ihres Geliebten Achill mit seiner Mischung aus Leidenschaft, Hoffnung, Gewalt und Zerstörung bietet viele Anregungen zur Auseinandersetzung mit Schultzes informeller, existenziell geprägter Malerei.Das Gemälde befand sich lange in Düsseldorfer Privatbesitz und wurde 2010 in der Ausstellung "Le Grand Geste. Abstrakter Expressionismus und Informel 1946-1964" im Museum Kunstpalast präsentiert. Neben dem Gemälde "Rosen-Geschwüre" (1955) aus der Sammlung Kemp war es einer der Glanzpunkte der Auswahl deutscher informeller Malerei, die sich neben Amerikanern wie Jackson Pollock, Philip Guston, Franz Kline, Adolph Gottlieb oder Joan Mitchell und Franzosen wie Jean Fautrier, Jean Dubuffet, Wols oder Georges Mathieu souverän behauptete.(Kay Heymer)VAN HAM Art Estate vertritt seit 2018 den künstlerischen Teilnachlass von Bernard Schultze des Folkwang-Museumsvereins e.V., Essen: www.bernard-­schultze.org Voraussichtliche Versandkosten für dieses Los: Absprache nach der Auktion.Erläuterungen zum Katalog Bernard Schultze Deutschland Informel Nachkriegskunst Unikate 1950er Modellrahmen Abstrakt Gemälde Öl

λ&nbspCRAIGIE AITCHISON (BRITISH 1926-2009) CRUCIFIXION Oil on canvas 45 x 35cm (17½ x 13¾ in.)Painted in 1963.Provenance: Marlborough Gallery, London Acquired from the above by the family of the present owners, 1st March 1968Exhibited: London, Marlborough Gallery, Helen Lessore and the Beaux Arts Gallery, February, 1968Scottish born painter Craigie Aitchison is renowned for his distinct style characterised by bold colour, simplified forms and emotive compositions. His father a United Free Minister, inspired Aitchison's works often exploring themes of faith, due to attending weekly services at Church from a very young age. This, in combination with a viewing of Dali's Christ of St John of the Cross at Kelvingrove Gallery, Glasgow, inspired him to explore religious or spiritual themes in his work.Having failed his law exams, Aitchison studied at the Slade, where he made friends with Michael Andrews, Paula Rego, Myles Murphy and Euan Uglow. A scholarship allowed Aitchison to travel to Italy, where the rich art and architectural history changed his approach to colour and emotion in his paintings. Aitchison had his first one man show at the Beaux Arts Gallery, London, at the age of 33, with one of his pieces purchased by the Tate. His success continued throughout his life, with a major retrospective held at the Serpentine Gallery and Royal Academy in 1981, as well as further retrospectives in Leeds in 1994. Furthermore, towards the end of his artistic career, at age seventy, he had a one man show at the Glasgow Gallery of Modern Art in 1996.   Condition Report: The canvas has not been relined. There is a 2.5cm scratch with some associated paint loss to the centre right of the composition, visible in the catalogue illustration. There is some light surface dirt.

Zhang Zhoujie (Chinese, b.1985), a unique 'SQN5-T' coffee table, 2012, stainless steel, 130cm wide 75cm deep 36cm high Zhang Zhoujie grew up in rural China but went on to study Fine Art at the China Academy of Fine Art, the country’s leading specialised institution, before gaining an MA in Industrial Design at Central Saint Martin’s, London. In wanting to draw on these skills in a modern context, he explored the latest trends in parametric design - a digital scripting method which allows the user push the possibilities of man-made, fluid forms. He cites ‘wu wei’ which is a cornerstone of Taoism, as another guide in his work. ‘Wu Wei‘ means a lack of intervention and though his furniture is fully tuned to the logic of mathematics, he strives to blend traditional Chinese art perspectives with Western design methodology. His designs remain true to the materials he eventually chooses and he doesn’t embellish or disguise, preferring to exploit the relationships and interactions of faceted surfaces in the making of extraordinary but functional furniture.

In his 1985 film Pale Rider, Eastwood creates his own variation of this character, where he plays a mysterious gunfighter named Preacher. Despite the Western genre being pronounced dead after the failure of Heaven's Gate five years earlier, Pale Rider was a box-office hit. Artist David Grove has captured the characteristics of the Old West, creating an impressive depiction of a gunslinging Eastwood surrounded by a striking sun-coloured background. The colours have remained bold on this uncommon rolled (as issued) format.

"Where does the camping trip end...and the nightmare begin...?". John Boorman's disturbing and violent movie follows four friends whose casual canoe trip down the Cahulawassee River turns into a nightmare as they begin to be chased by a group of blood-thirsty locals. The poster shows the four men carrying a canoe reflected into the water. However, the reflection perhaps isn't what it appears at first. One of the figures has been removed, and the canoe being carried has been cleverly replaced with a lifeless figure. A sinister design for a movie that still to this day produces a sense of unease.

In this case, it is either the film's title artwork with the tagline "Something Has Survived" or a spectacular effect of a T-Rex head bursting through the poster. This example is a rare prototype lenticular created by Kodak to show to Amblin Entertainment Studios featuring the printer's proof colour charts down both sides. It is believed that only three or four prototypes were produced. Provenance: David Frangioni is a published author, music businessman, producer, technologist, engineer, philanthropist, and drummer.
