Fraai werk van Herbert Zangs (1924-2003). Zangs 60 x 34 x 3 cm Zonder lijst: 42 x 9 cm Beschilderd hout handgesigneerd provenance: Kunsthandel Wim de Boer The oeuvre of Herbert Zangs shows a great appetite for experimentation. He was trained at the academy in Düsseldorf in the years 1945-1949 and after that he initially worked in a figurative style. From 1952 he created his famous 'Verweisungen', monochrome reliefs in white, consisting of different materials. With this he anticipated the Zero movement, which reached its peak in the period 1958-1966. In addition, Zangs continued to paint in a figurative-expressionist style well into old age. Zangs was one of the leading 20th-century artists and many well-known museums have his work in their collections.
