Weibliche Büste. 1956.
Wood (walnut).
Unique object. 45 x 26 x 27 cm (17.7 x 10.2 x 10.6 in).
[AR].
• Early figurative piece made of walnut wood with gentle curves and flowing shapes.
• Works from this period are pivotal in the artist's development towards his biomorphic style.
• The “Weibliche Büste” already shows the openings, curves, and increasing abstraction of the human body that are characteristic of his early work.
• Exhibited at 'Kunstkabinett Hanna Bekker vom Rath' the year it was created.
• In private ownership for over 30 years, acquired directly from the artist.
• A 5-meter-high wooden sculpture was shown at documenta III in Kassel in 1964.
We are grateful to Mr Jakob Steinbrenner, Munich, for his kind support in cataloging this lot.
PROVENANCE: Private collection, East Germany (since 1994, directly from the artist).
EXHIBITION: Karl Otto Götz – Emil Schumacher – Hans Steinbrenner – Marcel Polak, Frankfurter Kunstkabinett Hanna Bekker vom Rath, Frankfurt am Main, May 1956.
