Michael Krupp / Sigmar Polke



Sigmar Polke
The Spirits That Lend Strength Are Invisible V (Otter Creek)
1988
silver leaf, Neolithic tools and artificial resin on canvas 
300 x 400 cm
collection SFMOMA, San Francisco



Sigmar Polke was a curious artist. He used to work with unusual materials - colors, pigments, material that he let flow freely on surfaces. As if they acted by themselves… autonomous….
The unexpected, the enigma in his work does not provide or even hint at solutions - they keep the tension between the visible and the spectators individual imagination of the invisible.…
They do lure the spectator towards them and towards their own phantasy in a playful manner. Light….
This openness of thought, association and feeling has always fascinated me.
