Description from the seller
This work by Armin Göhringer is a hushed, abstract piece in which material, texture, and contrast are central.
Over a background of dark, horizontal markings lies a layer of roughly textured and vulnerable-looking paper, with fibers, folds, tears and openings.
This creates an engaging tension between what is visible and what is being covered.
The work fits well within Göhringer's exploration of the relationship between wood and paper: he uses coarse-fiber paper, among other things, to capture shapes and structures of wood.
Thus vulnerability, impermanence, and the natural properties of the material acquire an important place in the artwork.
Armin Göhringer (1954) is a German sculptor and painter, born in Nordrach in the Black Forest. From 1976 to 1982 he studied at the Hochschule für Gestaltung in Offenbach am Main; he now lives in Zell am Harmersbach. He is best known for his wood sculptures, but he also works with drawings and paper. In his sculptures he cuts openings, grids and geometric structures out of solid logs with a chainsaw, creating a contrast between heaviness and lightness, mass and emptiness, solidity and vulnerability. Those same oppositions can also be found in his works on paper. Thus his work is not only about form but also about the properties of natural materials and themes such as balance and impermanence.
Dimensions: 20 x 33 cm
Dimensions with frame: 44 x 54 cm
Viewing is, of course, possible.
