caput mortum. 1981/1983.
Mixed media. Acrylic on canvas over synthetic wadding on canvas.

[EH].
• Graubner's play with the gentle layering of color gradients and the reduced, subtly nuanced palette makes for a fascinating appeal.
• By saturating the canvas with highly diluted paint, Graubner achieved a remarkably soft, mist-like application of the pigments.
• Graubner's three-dimensional “Color Space Painting” became his artistic trademark.
• Works by Gotthard Graubner can be found in numerous important collections, including the Städel Museum in Frankfurt am Main, the Collection of Contemporary Art of the Federal Republic of Germany, and the Neue Nationalgalerie in Berlin.
PROVENANCE: Private collection, Bavaria.
