Imi Knoebel’s edition Untitled (1986) is a reflection on the death of Joseph Beuys. At its center is a solid blue square, reminiscent of Malevich’s Black Square, around which fiberboard panels are arranged in varying configurations. This composition evokes the image of a fixed star and its satellites, with the square potentially symbolizing Beuys’ enduring influence. The panels represent the continued radiance of his ideas.
