Saupe, Ulf -- "Golden Forest # 7". 2020. Ground coal printed on 24 karat gold leaf on wood, gum bichromate process. 113 x 146 cm image size, mounted free-floating in shadow gap frame, unique piece (Variation II), signed, titled and dated by the artist in silver ink on verso.Ulf Saupe was born 1979 in Halle (Saale) and lives and works in Berlin. As the last student of Prof. Floris Neusüss, he has dedicated himself to the field of experimental, alternative photography. In a versatile series of works, the artist repeatedly combines analog photographic processes from the 19th century with modern digital technology. Two aspects are paramount in his work: the materiality and haptics of the image and the resemblance to the color quality of painting through the use of real pigments, distinguishing it from high gloss photography. In the “Golden Forest” series, Saupe grinds common coal briquettes into fine particles and uses them in the printing process. In multiple thin layers, he transfers the motif by hand onto the 24 karat gold-plated wood panel until the desired image density is achieved. Meanwhile he intervenes, while the print is wet, with a brush and spray bottle to shape the image. This special technique creates a unique material composition. – In excellent condition.
