For this edition, which has the characteristics of a unique artwork, Gerhard Merz juxtaposed two monochromes whose thick, pastose application of paint reinforces the idea of painting. A relief emerges, defined by the spontaneous brushstroke, structured differently on each metal plate. The “orange” is red lead, and the “green” is Scheele’s Green.
