Raumplastik (Kleine Reux). 1961.
Sculpture . Welded stainless steel rods, in silver gray, on basalt base.
Unique object. 32.5 x 26.8 x 25.5 cm (12.7 x 10.5 x 10 in). Base: 5 x 4,5 x 4,5 cm ( 1,9 x 1,7 x 1,7 in).
This work was made before Kricke worked on the large sculpture "Große Reux" in the Park des Chateau de Reux in Normandy and can be considered as a kind of preliminary work for the monumental one.

"My problem is not mass, not figure, but space and motion - space and time. I don't want a real space or real motion (mobile), I want to depict motion. I am trying to concretize the unity of space and time."
Norbert Kricke, 1954 (quote after: Künstler Kritisches Lexikon der Gegenwartskunst, Munich 1988, p. 2)
