Lot 1911 | A.R. Penck
(1939 Dresden - 2017 Zürich) Ohne Titel Expressive Komposition mit chiffrenartigen, für Penck typischen Figuren. Mit seinen unkonventionellen, expressiven, zwischen Abstraktion und Figuration schwankenden Werken stand er im Gegensatz zur offiziellen Kunstpolitik der DDR, die ihm eine Akademie-Ausbildung und Aufnahme in den Künstlerverband verwehrte. 1968 organisierte der Galerist Michael Werner eine erste Einzelausstellung in Köln. Er wurde seitdem von der Staatssicherheit der DDR überwacht, auch nachdem er 1980 aus der DDR "ausgebürgert" wurde. 1972 nahm er ohne Genehmigung der DDR-Behörden an der Documenta 5 in Kassel teil. 1975 erhielt er den Will-Grohmann-Preis durch die Akademie der Künste in Westberlin und erlebte danach verstärkte Kontrollen der Staatssicherheit. Aufgrund der politischen Verhältnisse signierte Penck ab 1976 seine Werke häufiger mit dem Künstlermonogramm "Y". Tusche/Papier. Rechts unten monogrammiert "Y". 29,5 cm x 42 cm. Rahmen. /P/Provenienz: Galerie Rudolf Zwirner, Köln; dort 1980 erworben und in Privatsammlung in Baden-Württemberg; im Erbgang an die vorherigen Besitzer. Brush on paper. Signed with his pseudonym-monogram "Y".
