Classical Modernism
Max (MOPP) Oppenheimer
The dead pigeon. 1927. etching on Van Gelder Zonen laid paper (with watermark). 12.5 x 10 cm (26 x 21.5 cm). Signed and titled. - A few tiny, pinpoint stains and delicately browned in the margins. Overall very good with nuanced, burnished impression.
Not in Pabst. - The oeuvre of Max Oppenheimer, also known by the abbreviation "MOPP", is characterised by an intensive artistic exploration of technique, form and expression. He primarily used the medium of etching for pictorial condensation and emotional intensification. The present sheet from the artist's later work, in which he often turned to artistic and religiously symbolic content, shows a composition that alternates between dense, almost nervous lines and recessed, light areas, the narrative content of which is gradually revealed in associations.
