AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Utopia? is a hand-signed screen print from 1986 of Arntz's last standalone linocut from 1969.
Arntz portrayed the world in woodcuts and linocuts, with recurring themes of class. As early as the 1920s, he produced critical woodcuts about social injustices and the rise of the Nazis.
He was ahead of his time with his simple visual language. Arntz gained wide recognition among the artists of his generation.

Utopia? shows the helplessness of the youth after the Second World War in a house of cards. Arntz plays here with the word Greve and Reve (strike and dream).
The silkscreen print is in excellent condition, is carefully shipped, or can be picked up by appointment.
