Jannis Kounellis *
(Piraeus 1936–2017 Rome)
Untitled, 1961–62, signed on the reverse Kounellis J.,
printing ink on paper, 69.5 x 100 cm, framed
Provenance:
Gallery Anthony d’Offay, London
Private Collection, Germany - acquired from the above in 1993
“The exclusion of images of natural forms in favor of letters, numbers and signs -such as arrows and arithmetic symbols – brought the work partly out of the range of the image, whether abstract or surrealistic, and into an interface between plastic form and conceptual discourse. The letter and number paintings of Jaspar Johns (b. 1930) in the same years were related, but their emphases on the working of the surface related more to the painterly tradition of Abstract Expressionism; John’s letters and numbers seem to be viewed as graphic, not semantic, elements.”
