On the reverse, a handwritten label bearing the date, title, details of the technique and the names of the participating artists. Framed. - Cardboard slightly browned due to age.

Overall, very good condition. A magnificent collaborative work with a dynamic and expressive style.
This large-format collaborative work is set within the context of the experimental Leipzig art scene of the late 1970s centred around Günther Huniat. The participating artists – Günther Huniat, Frieder Heinze, Lutz Dammbeck and Hans-Hendrik Grimmling – were united by an interest in collective working methods, intermedia projects and self-organised forms of presentation that went beyond official exhibition conventions. The four-part composition displays different drawing styles, which, within the shared theme of ‘Monologue’, combine to form an open, dynamic pictorial structure. Organic, figurative and abstract formal elements interact with one another.
