Josef Albers - Homage to the square, 1966
Est: €1,900 - €2,850
JOSEF ALBERS (1888 Bottrop - 1976 New Haven, Connecticut) Hommage to the square, 1966 Siebdruck, 28,1 x 28,1 cm, monogrammiert, datiert und nummeriert (41). Erschienen im Verlag Kestner Gesellschaft in Hannover und gedruckt bei Ives-Sillman in New Haven. In der Druckoberfläche unberührt und vorzüglich erhalten. Josef Albers wurde am 19. März 1888 in Bottrop, Deutschland, geboren. Er war ein einflussreicher Maler, Grafiker, Kunsttheoretiker und Pädagoge, der vor allem für seine Beiträge zur abstrakten Kunst und seine Farbstudien bekannt ist. Nach einer Ausbildung zum Volksschullehrer und einer Tätigkeit als Glasmaler studierte Albers ab 1920 am renommierten Bauhaus in Weimar, wo er später selbst als Lehrer tätig wurde. Dort lehrte er unter anderem in den Werkstätten für Glasmalerei und Möbelbau. Nach der Schließung des Bauhauses durch die Nationalsozialisten emigrierte Albers 1933 in die USA. Er übernahm eine Professur am Black Mountain College in North Carolina, wo er eine zentrale Rolle in der Entwicklung der modernen Kunstpädagogik spielte. 1950 wurde er Leiter der Abteilung für Design an der Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut. Albers ist vor allem für seine Serie „Homage to the Square“ bekannt, die er 1950 begann und bis zu seinem Tod fortsetzte. Diese Werke erforschen die Wechselwirkungen von Farben und die Wahrnehmung von Raum und Tiefe. Neben seiner künstlerischen Tätigkeit veröffentlichte er 1963 das einflussreiche Buch „Interaction of Color“, das bis heute als Standardwerk der Farbtheorie gilt. Josef Albers starb am 25. März 1976 in New Haven, Connecticut, und hinterließ ein bedeutendes künstlerisches und theoretisches Erbe, das die moderne Kunst nachhaltig geprägt hat. Das vorliegende Werk aus der Serie „Hommage to the Square“ zeigt eine meisterhafte Komposition aus ineinander verschachtelten Quadraten, die in verschiedenen Gelb- und Orangetönen gehalten sind. Die harmonische Abstufung der Farben erzeugt eine subtile räumliche Wirkung und lädt den Betrachter ein, die Wechselwirkungen der Farbfelder zu erkunden. Die präzise Ausführung und die klare Geometrie des Siebdrucks spiegeln Albers’ tiefes Interesse an der Wahrnehmung von Farbe und Form wider. Dieses Werk ist ein exemplarisches Beispiel für Albers’ ikonische Studien zur Farbdynamik und gehört zu den bedeutenden Arbeiten der modernen abstrakten Kunst.
