Large 'Tubes' Object by Burkhard Schittny. Germany, 2021.
Square mirrored backboard with twentyfive mirrored tubes and transparent colour foils in orange, silber and green. Framed in perspex box with aluminium back. Edition 1/1, signed in felt pen on back.
Schittny’s elegant wall object series “Tubes” combines ideas of Avant-Garde geometric abstract art, post-war modernism and Op-Art. The special appeal of these pieces lies in their absence of representational content.
The “Tubes” have a rational-geometric structure but are equally sensual and overwhelming in their brilliance which changes and shimmers depending on the angle of view and the incidence of light.
Excellent condition.
