Camargue XX/4

KOENIGmuseum

Description

Fritz Koenig travels to the South of France in 1956. His encounter with the herds of cattle moving through the landscape triggers a series of drawings and sculptures entitled "Camargue". Rhythmically structured and intertwined, their expressiveness lies in the number of individual figures merging into a whole. Fritz Koenig also applies this principle to other subjects, all of which are stylistically attributable to so-called mass sculptures. "Camargue XX/4" is a variant of the prototype on the same theme that was formulated in 1956.
