Sigmar Polke's ability to jump from figuration to abstraction, and everything in between, has defined him as a modern master of post-war painting. His shifting picture planes generate a mesh of layered pigments, which is on display in this dynamic work executed in acrylic and dispersion on paper. The interplay of translucent and opaque passages creates a richly textured surface that exemplifies Polke's restless experimentation with materials and process.
