About
the print 7374
The
work 7373 belongs to the Red Zen portfolio. The
print portfolios Black Zen Matter and Red Zen represented a change.
The color palette is reduced to the minimum, as are the style
elements. The last recognizable figurative elements are replaced by a
formal language.The works show
elements of minimal and conceptual art. At the same time, the
influences of Zen and Buddhist philosophy have become increasingly
apparent again since my time in the Far East
