Rahmen.Provenienz: Christie's, Sale 4325 Modern Drawings, 26th June 1990, No. 166 Ausstellungen: The American Federation of Arts, New York. Manzù and Morandi, 1958, Kat. Nr. 35 / World House Galleries, New York, Kat. Nr. 189 /Columbus Gallery of Fine Arts, Columbus (Ohio), 167-38 / Annex Galleries, Santa Rosa, CalifornienDie 1950er Jahre markieren den internationalen Durchbruch Giorgio Morandis, der in einem Interview 1958 sein Credo formuliert ''Es gibt nichts Abstrakteres als die Wirklichkeit''. In dieser Zeit und bis zu seinem Lebensende fokussiert er sich auf die Darstellung von Stillleben, die in ihrer künstlerischen Verknappung die Quintessenz der Realität wiedergeben. Dabei verschwimmen bzw. werden die Grenzen, wie auch in der vorliegenden Zeichnung erkennbar wird, zwischen dem Stillleben und der architektonischen Komposition aufgehoben. Die Form des Gegenstandes, seines Zwecks enthoben, wird zum bildbestimmenden Motiv, das die Fläche dominiert und in seiner bildnerischen Gestalt sowohl interpretierbar, als auch universell verständlich wird. Morandi schafft damit auch im Zeichnerischen archetypische Modelle der Realität, die trotz oder gerade wegen ihrer Fragilität und wegen ihres Abstraktionsgrades, seine hohe Qualität als Künstler zeigen.
