Description
Renowned German artist Fritz Rahmann (1936-2006) lived in Friesland in the 1970s, where he played a key role in the renewal of abstract art. In analogy to minimal music, he created this series of screen prints featuring slow shifts in form. The 10 screen prints titled “Multiplex” were printed by one of the Netherlands’ leading art printers, Piet Clement in Amsterdam. The “Multiplex” series was published in an edition of 100 in a sturdy cardboard folder. The impressive series is held by several museums and has become rare as a complete set. The screenprints constitute Rahmann’s most important work before he made waves in Germany with his Camera Obscura project and the artist group Büro Berlin, with which he also achieved international recognition. Rahmann was also a prominent art historical theorist and was a professor at the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar from 1993 to 2001. The ten silkscreens are numbered and handsigned ‘Multiplex 1971 screen KFRahmann’, on heavy paper in a cardboard folder, 41/100, in very good condition with only a few light foxing spots on no. 1, 100×75.
