Description
Modern and Contemporary Art Conceptual Art Sarmento, Julião Untitled. From: For Joseph Beuys. 1987. Lithograph and collage on vellum. 70 x 52.5 cm (80.3 x 60.1 cm). Signed, dated and numbered in Roman numerals. - In very good condition overall. An excellent, nuanced print of the large-format composition with a narrow margin, featuring the artist’s margin at the top. One of 30 Roman-numbered copies of the special edition. – Published by Edition Schellmann, Munich/New York and Galerie Bernd Klüser, Munich. - Julião Sarmento, one of the most significant Portuguese artists of his generation, works within a conceptually grounded body of work that combines photography, painting, text and objects to form enigmatic visual structures, often imbued with desire and memory. This particular work brings together three collaged elements on a dark, glazed background without establishing a narrative connection, evoking associations without resolving them. This approach reveals a thematic affinity with Joseph Beuys: like him, Sarmento understands art as an open field in which meaning is not predetermined but is generated only through the encounter with the viewer.
