“Painting by A.R. Penck (Ralf Winkler): The Cosmonaut (Center), 1991 (oil on canvas)” / Michael Werner Gallery / Art Basel Hong Kong 2013 / SML.20130523.6D.13901
More work from A.R. Penck (Ralf Winkler) seen at the Art Basel Hong Kong which I liked.
The primitive cave paintings at Lascaux are often considered by art historians as the beginning of art, and in many ways Penck’s stick figures and his flat and pictographic symbols resemble that of the past as well. In some ways they remind me of the drawings by Keith Haring, but obviously Penck came from a completely different line.
It looks almost like an artefact justifying the “ancient aliens” theory by many ufologists, but of course it was painted rather recently. It is fantastic though.
