A R PENCK (1939-2017): UNTITLED.
A large painting on card by A R Penck. Signed at the bottom of the piece. Size: 16x12 inches. Professionally mounted and framed. Penck first attracted attention with a series of paintings and sculptures, made in the 1960s and early 1970s, that he called Standarts, a conflation of "standard" and "art", with an echo of the German word for banner or flag, Standarte. In the 1980s he became known worldwide for paintings with pictographic, neo-primitivist imagery of human figures and other totemic forms.
