Lot 156 | ADOLF LUTHER OHNE TITEL (HOHLSPIEGELOBJEKT) (1975)
ADOLF LUTHER 1912 Krefeld - 1989 ebenda OHNE TITEL (HOHLSPIEGELOBJEKT) (1975) Runder, halbtransparenter Konkavspiegel auf Spiegelfläche, auf Holz, mit Leuchtmittel, in Plexiglasrahmen. 61,4 x 61,4 x 18,4 cm. Rückseitig signiert und datiert 'Luther (19)75' sowie mit Rotstempeln 'LUTHER LICHT u. MATERIE' und 'SEHEN IST SCHÖN'. Adolf Luther wurde 1912 in Uerdingen bei Krefeld geboren und gilt als einer der Hauptvertreter der kinetischen Kunst und der Optical Art. Da traditionelle Bildmittel und Darstellungsformen den Anforderungen der Zeit nicht mehr genügten, widmet sich Luther bereits Anfang der 1960er Jahre Entmaterialisierungen, der Destruktion verschiedener Materialien und Assemblagen. 1962 entstehen erste Lichtobjekte 'Lichtschleusen' aus Glasbruchstücken. 1963 arbeitet Luther mit Brillenglas und Linsenobjekten, sowie mit konkav und konvex gewölbten Hohlspiegeln, die umgekehrte Vorbilder nach vorn in den Raum projizieren.Adolf Luthers 'Hohlspiegelobjekte' dienen dazu, eine neue Lichtwahrnehmung zu erzeugen. Der Betrachter und seine Umgebung sind dabei aktiv an der Bildwirkung beteiligt und werden durch ihre Spiegelung unweigerlich Bestandteil des Kunstwerkes. Luthers Spiegelobjekte lassen das Licht reiner und intensiver zur Geltung kommen. Minimale Kratzspuren auf der Vorderseite des Rahmens. Funktionsfähig. Provenienz: Privatsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen.
ADOLF LUTHER 1912 Krefeld - 1989 ibid. UNTITLED (HOLLOW MIRROR OBJECT) (1975) Round, semi-transparent concave mirror on mirror surface, on wood, with illuminant, in plexiglass frame. 61.4 x 61.4 x 18.4 cm. Signed and dated 'Luther (19)75' on the reverse and with red stamps 'LUTHER LICHT u. MATERIE' and 'SEHEN IST SCHÖN'. Minimal scratches on the front of the frame. In working condition. Adolf Luther was born in Uerdingen near Krefeld in 1912 and is considered one of the main representatives of kinetic art and optical art. Since traditional pictorial means and forms of representation no longer met the demands of the time, Luther devoted himself to dematerialisation, the destruction of various materials and assemblages as early as the beginning of the 1960s. In 1962 he created his first light objects, 'Lichtschleusen', from broken glass. In 1963 Luther worked with spectacle lenses and lens objects, as well as with concave and convex concave mirrors that projected inverted models forwards into the room. Adolf Luther's 'concave mirror objects' serve to create a new perception of light. The viewer and his surroundings are actively involved in the effect of the picture and inevitably become part of the work of art through their reflection. Luther's mirror objects make the light appear purer and more intense. Provenance: Private collection North Rhine-Westphalia.
