Untitled, 2006

From Door Cycle
Acrylic on wood door, hand painted by the artist. Size: 198.5 x 86 x 4 cm (78 x 34 x 1½ in). Edition: 15, each painting unique, signed and numbered on verso.

Inspired by Willem de Kooning’s Door Cycle, Schellmann Art initiated a group project exploring the door as a symbolic and painterly-sculptural object. Various artists created works using different techniques and materials, all in the dimensions of a standard door panel. Katharina Grosse applied her signature spray technique to turn the door into a dynamic field of color, making each piece in her edition a unique artwork.
