Elsewhere / Nowhere, 1993

Two silkscreens on rag paper, 101.5 x 141 cm (40 x 55½ in) each, signed and numbered each. Edition of 50.

This edition is based on two monumental canvases Peter Halley had painted that left a lasting impression on Jörg Schellmann during a studio visit. Schellmann asked the artist whether he would use these motifs for two prints – an idea Halley fortunately considered excellent. The works were printed in up to 14 colors, layered in multiple passes, allowing the artist to achieve the desired modulation of grey tones.
