Formen aus Alublech gekantet gewölbt lackiert kombinierbar

Giessen, Germany: Galerie Sous-Sol, 1967. 42,5x30 cm.

Exhibition poster / invite - designed by Paul Maenz - published in conjunction with the 4th solo show by Charlotte Posenenske - out of only eight she had during her lifetime and only the second after she devised her signature idiom with industrially inspired sculptures of aluminium, steel or cardboard, whose modular components could be combined and reproduced at will. Soon afterwards, "she stopped working as an artist in 1968, no longer believing that art could influence social interaction or draw attention to social inequalities. Instead, she turned her attention to sociology until her death in 1985, becoming a specialist in employment and industrial working processes. She refused to visit any exhibitions during this period, or show her work." [Martin Pesch, Frieze, 2000] In the Giessen exhibition, Posenenske presented her works “Relief B” and, for the first time, “Relief C". Extremely scarce, as all material from her lifetime.

Folded twice as issued for mailing. VG+ / Near Fine.
