Vitrinentext
In seinem Stillleben lässt Georg Muche eine verkehrte Welt entstehen: Während die flächig angeordneten Früchte wie transparent erscheinen, weist der kastenartige Bildraum mehrere perspektivische Brüche auf. Der als Formmeister der Bauhaus-Weberei tätige Maler wandte sich Mitte der 1920er Jahre von der Abstraktion ab. Das gegenständliche Sujet der Zeichnung unterstreicht die Subjektivität des Künstlers, der sein Schaffen als ein Gegenmodell zu technischen Produktionsverfahren verstand.
In his still life, Georg Muche creates a topsy-turvy world. While the fruit, arranged two-dimensionally, appears as though transparent, the box-shaped pictorial space shows several inconsistencies of perspective. The artist, who was the Master of Form of the Bauhaus weaving workshop, turned away from abstraction in the mid-1920s. The representational subject of this drawing emphasizes the subjectivity of the artist, who understood his creative work as a counter model to the manufacturing processes.
