German Post War Karl Menzen Dance dialogue. 2001. brushed stainless steel on wooden base. 53.5 x 66 x 48 cm (with plinth). - Partially somewhat fingerstained. Overall in very good condition. Spatially dynamic work. Oppelt, Ulrike / Hinterkeuser, Ralph: Stahl-Werk : Skulpturen / Karl Menzen. EditionArtInFlow. Berlin. 2012. pp. 12 and 13 (with illustration). - "The speciality of the sculptor Karl Menzen lies in the derivation of harmonious, allusive movements from the rigid material of steel. With great sensitivity, he (...) translates moments of intense movement into his abstract, touching visual language". (Matthias Hahn, "Karl Menzen - Die Poetik des Stahls", 2021) - Our brushed stainless steel work thrives on its fine, matt materiality, which subtly absorbs and diffuses light. The geometrically curved forms develop a calm but exciting presence in the room by suggesting movement and flow. In its open, dialogue-like orientation, the sculpture enters into a relationship with the surrounding architecture and landscape - and takes the viewer on a journey to actively experience it through movement and changing perspectives.
