Plakatwand
A bold and graphic composition rendered in flat, simplified forms, Ruckhäberle's *Plakatwand* draws on the visual language of mid-century graphic design and Socialist Realist poster art. Figures and text-like elements are arranged in a rhythmic, almost theatrical manner, evoking the public spectacle of billboard advertising and political propaganda. The work's restrained palette and hard-edged aesthetic blur the line between fine art and commercial imagery, inviting reflection on mass communication and collective identity.
