Friedrich Meckseper
Nature morte, 1988.
Material assemblage
Post auction sale: € 10,000 / $ 11,300
Nature morte. 1988.
Material assemblage.
47.5 x 155 x 16 cm (18.7 x 61 x 6.2 in).
The artist mounted various objects on a steel beam, including glasses and test tubes, hooks, metal signs, screws, a pen holder, a light bulb, a fossil (ammonite), an artificial skull, boxes of matches, a funnel, picture frames, and a fragment of a stone.
A Meckseper painting with an almost identical motif is available in our Day Sale on June 7. [CH].
• Meckseper transfers the bizarre, enigmatic combinations of mostly industrial objects from his neo-objective still lifes into the third dimension.
• Very rare: one of these fascinating assemblages was last offered on the auction market almost fifteen years ago (source: artprice.com).
• Meckseper's prints and paintings are part of important collections, including the Kunsthalle Bremen, the Städtische Galerie im Lenbachhaus, Munich, the British Museum, London, and the National Gallery of Art, Washington, DC.
PROVENANCE: Galerie Peerlings, Krefeld / Kampen (Sylt).
Private collection, North Rhine-Westphalia (acquired from the above in 1990).
Family-owned ever since.
EXHIBITION: Meckseper: aus der Sammlung Großhaus, Städtisches Museum Brunswick, February 24 - April 14, 1991, pp. 138f (with double-page illu.).
LITERATURE: Friedrich Meckseper, Christiane Vielhaber, Homo ludens. Vollständiges Verzeichnnis der Collagen und Montagen 1987–1989 (3), Krefeld 1989, catalogue raisonné no. 109
- -
Meckseper. Bilder, Radierungen, Zeichnungen, Collagen und Objekte aus der Sammlung Großhaus, Heidelberg 2001, pp. 100f. (double-page illu.).
"He wanted to build locomotives, but then art won: Friedrich Meckseper retained the precise eye of the engineer in his paintings and graphic works, but combined it with mystery and magic."
