Description from the seller

Title: For Bitterfeld
Artist: A.R. Penck
Year of origin: 1990
Technique: Screen printing
Format: approx. 100 × 70 cm
Edition: 90 copies + artist's proofs
Signature: designated and hand-signed

A.R. Penck, born as Ralf Winkler in Dresden, was a self-taught artist who stood out for his unmistakable visual language. His works, often characterized by stick figures, symbols, and signs, recall cave painting, Asian calligraphy, and graffiti. With his “Standart” painting he pursued a universal comprehensibility of his art that should communicate across cultural and linguistic boundaries. Penck was represented at the Documenta several times, and his works can be found in major museums worldwide, including the MoMA in New York and the Städel Museum in Frankfurt.
