Die Jagd nach dem Glück. 1984.
Charcoal drawing on canvas.
Signed and dated in upper left. 200 x 310 cm (78.7 x 122 in). [JS].
Initially, lot 31 and lot 32 are called up individually, subsequently combined as one lot.
• Rare opportunity to acquire the monumental preliminary drawing on canvas and the accompanying gigantic painting in one auction: The childhood dream of speed, freedom and coolness in an overwhelming mega-panorama format.
• "Die Jagd nach dem Glück" (Chasing Fortune) is one of the largest works by Klapheck ever offered on the international auction market (source: artprice.com).
• While Klapheck's hyper-representational paintings are particularly captivating for their maximum degree of perfection, Klapheck's "preliminary drawings" are unique documents of a meticulous and complex creative process.
• Klapheck's documents "bear witness to [him] grappling with the smell of sweat from his deperate searching and groping" (K. Klapheck, 1982).
PROVENANCE: Galerie Lelong, Zürich (with the label on the stretcher).
Private collection Southern Germany.
EXHIBITION: Réveries d`un homme, Galerie Lelong, Zürich, March 2 - April 15, 2006 (with the label on the stretcher).
"Initially, [.] the drawing serves a preparatory purpose. At times it has its very own appeal, and that's why it shouldn't be regarded better or worse than the final painting."
Konrad Klapheck, 2007.
After starting over a hundred times, my canvases often looked greasy and filthy, like a dirt bike circuit in rain. In some cases the fabric was pierced by the compasses. [.] A colleague said he liked the preliminary drawings better than the final pictures, that they were fresher and more lively than the perfect final products. [..] For years I had erased everything that looked like work. I had tried to give my paintings a look as if they were not man-made, as if they had fallen from the sky ready-made. Should I really release the witnesses of my struggle with their sweaty smell of desperate searching and groping?"
Konrad Klapheck, Über meine Zeichnungen, 1982, in: Klapheck, Bilder und Texte, Düsseldorf 2013, p. 51.
"I began to exhibit the paintings and the accompanying drawings together, always side by side. Some people understood exactly what I wanted to achieve, especially other artists [..]. Others debated about which was the better medium [..]. But that's not my point. The two products don't compete; they each serve a different purpose [..]. The drawing has its very own appeal, and that's why it shouldn't be regarded better or worse than the final painting."
