Lot no. 45
Uecker, Günther
Snow. 171. embossing on firm wove paper. 46 x 45.5 cm (59 x 49.5 cm). Signed, dated and numbered. Mounted in spots on support and framed under glass (unopened). - Minimally bumped in the upper right corner, very minimal and barely visible yellowing in the outer margins, apparently very good overall. Quite excellent impression, the embossing oscillating marvellously between strong clarity and delicate restraint, with margins, wide margins at the bottom.
One of 150 copies. - Uecker, master of monochromy, places the nail heads of our sheet rhythmically and following his own pattern, formulating a lively and exciting dot structure. Placed close together, the nail heads become a constituent element of the work, creating a moving interplay of circular contours, light and shadow.
