This silkscreen in colors from 2001 shows two seemingly disparate motifs. First there is a house-like form constructed of rounded black bars which go up in red blazing flames and is painted in flat ductus. Second, arranged above that, the lower body of a male nude with claw-like feat is plastically drawn in finer line, which sunk upside down into a hole. Thus the beholder can individually reveal the image through his associations.



The work is signed and dated lower right in pencil 'Immendorff 01'. The silkscreen in colors bears occasional handling creases, one somewhat longer (17 cm) in the image center. The edges are circumferentially slightly scuffed, the sheet is rolled. Otherwise the work is in good condition.



Jörg Immendorff (1945-2007)

Jörg Immendorff was born in 1945 in Bleckede in Lower Saxony. He studied at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf and at the beginning he created figurative paintings with socio-critical messages. Immendorff developed a new style of history paintings in Germany. In 1976 he took part at the Biennale in Venice. In the same year he formed a friendship with the German painter A. R. Penck, who at this time still lived in East Germany and was proscribed there. Jörg Immendorff is considered as one of the most important, contemporary German artists. He died in 2007 in Dusseldorf.
