Puck

1993

Georg Baselitz ’s Puck (1993) is a signed limited edition woodcut on wove paper, measuring 103 × 72 cm. Dominated by a vivid green ground punctuated by bold red and black forms, the composition fuses figurative suggestion with forceful abstraction. Scratched, linear contours outline inverted, fragmented bodies, while the flattened color fields heighten the print’s graphic intensity and physical presence. Created in 1993 in connection with the Ice Hockey World Championship in Dortmund, Puck reflects Baselitz’s ongoing engagement with movement, inversion, and the expressive potential of the woodcut medium. The rough-hewn edges, visible grain, and stark contrasts underscore his interest in immediacy and material resistance, hallmarks of his printmaking practice in the 1990s. Executed in an edition of 300, this fine art print is hand-signed and numbered by the artist, representing a dynamic example of Baselitz’s large-scale woodcuts from this period.
