Günther Förg — Architektur I
Günther Förg

Architektur I

A suite of five richly layered etchings and aquatints, *Architektur I* reflects Günther Förg's sustained dialogue between abstraction and architectural form. Deep, atmospheric fields of color intersect with structural lines, evoking the surfaces and spatial rhythms of modernist buildings. The works demonstrate Förg's masterful command of the printmaking medium, using tonal gradations and gestural marks to dissolve the boundary between representation and pure pictorial sensation.

Medium
The complete set of five etching and aquatints in colours, on wove paper, with full margins,
