    El Anatsui, Untitled, c.1982

    Est: £25,000 - £30,000

    El Anatsui, Ghanaian b.1944 - Untitled, c.1982; incised wood panels, 7, each approx. 93 x 14 cm, 93 x 97.5 cm (overall) Provenance: Professor Uche Okeke (1933-2016), gifted by the artist and thence by descent Note: this lot is accompanied by a certificate from Asele Institute, Nigeria. This work was originally owned by Professor Uche Okeke (1933-2016), an artist who not only first invited El Anatsui to work in Nigerian, but also held an early exhibition of the artist’s works ‘Wooden Wall Plaques by El Anatsui’, at his Asele Nimo Galleries, Nsukka in 1976. The present lot is a key example of the artist’s early style, which combined a visual language inspired by traditional folklore with a modern technique, and comes at an important moment for the artist when his work was recently subject of a major display at the Turbine Hall at the Tate Modern in London.

  • El Anatsui

    El Anatsui

    Est: €80,000 - €120,000

    (born in Anyako, Ghana in 1944; lives and works in Nigeria) Metal Cloth, 2023, acrylic, resin, inkjet on aluminum and copper, Edition of 14, 162.5 x 162.5 x 10.1 cm, in plexiglass frame Provenance: Corporate Collection, Germany (directly from the studio of the artist) The metal sheets embody a conceptual framework that Anatsui has spent two decades refining: the notion of art as contingent, as the embodiment of pure potential. The formulation of his principle of “unfixed form” (which is central to the sheets) began in the late 1980s, when he started composing wall hangings on unfixed panels and invited others to rearrange them. These works mocked the role of the artist as heroic individual and the idea of the artwork as unique, although each work speaks of an extraordinary conceptual complexity. From the outset of his career in Kumasi, Ghana, Anatsui had been interested in adinkra — motifs expressing the connection between the verbal and the visual in Akan culture. Though he was not particularly interested in the cloth on which these motifs were printed, he was profoundly vested with the symbolic meaning and history they contained. Struck by a remark he had heard in the United States: 'Cloth is to the African what monuments are to Westerners', Anatsui later quoted this observation in an interview with Atta Kwami, and added that cloths bear the capacity 'to commemorate events, issues, persons, and objectives outside of themselves is so immense and fluid it even rubs off on other practices'. El Anatsui, quoted in 'El Anatsui: Material Wonder', Hali, 15 February 2019, https://hali.com/news/el-anatsui-material-wonder-october-gallery-london-opening-28-february-2019/ “I wanted to work with materials that people had put their hands on. After they have interacted with humans, materials have something else to offer. When working with materials that have such history, the process has some kind of connective energy: the energy of all the people who have interacted with them.” El Anatsui

Publisher: Parkett-Verlag, Zurich (publisher). Number: 1/35. Condition: The work is in very good condition. With Parkett magazine. "Anatsui responds to every material he works with as if he has encountered it for the first time in the flux of history, all the while concentrating on how he might exploit a material's most meaningful plastic potential. He is driven by the desire to incessantly experiment and sculpturally analyze whatever material he is working with - clay, wood, cement, meta, et al. - as he tests the possibility of what each may yield in relation to scale, presence, color, shape, and idea."
