Description from the seller
Markus Lüpertz
“Tiger”, 1995
A characterful silkscreen by Markus Lüpertz that interprets a seemingly familiar motif in his typically idiosyncratic manner. The tiger is at the center of the composition and appears at once powerful and mysterious – not a naturalistic animal portrait, but an expressive image figure within a reduced landscape.
Details of the lot
Artist: Markus Lüpertz (*1941)
Title: Tiger
Year of creation: 1995
Technique: Color screenprint / silkscreen
Paper: Bütten
Sheet size: approx. 52× 67cm
Edition: 40 copies plus e.a. artist’s proofs
Designation: ML / e.a..
Condition: see photos
The special thing about this lot
Lüpertz is not interested in the most exact reproduction of an animal. Rather, the tiger becomes a strong visual sign. The clear silhouette, the reduced landscape, and the dynamic color palette give the motif an almost archaic effect.
This very mix of concreteness and deliberate simplification is characteristic of Lüpertz’s art. The viewer recognizes the tiger immediately – and yet experiences it not as a classical animal portrayal.
With an edition of only 40 copies plus artist’s proofs, it is also a relatively small graphic edition.
About the artist
Markus Lüpertz is one of the formative German artists of the postwar generation. His versatile work encompasses painting, graphics, and sculpture. He is known for an independent visual language in which familiar objects and figures gain new meaning through simplification, exaggeration, and expressive forms.
Lüpertz consciously combines opposites: concreteness and abstraction, traditional image traditions and modern form language. His works are often immediately understandable at first glance and yet reveal themselves anew through their unusual design.
