Bernd Lohaus

Untitled , 1970
Sculpture , Wood: 26 x 48 x 13 cm, Rope: 215 cm length
Wood, rope

A key feature of Lohaus’ work is his choice of materials. He is particularly fond of rough wooden blocks. This work consists of a wooden black and rope, this makes it possible to even hang the work from a ceiling or wall. The title leads us to believe that this artwork will take up a lot of space, but nothing could be further from the truth: the image is limited both in terms of its dimensions and in terms of the space it takes up. Thus, Lohaus relativises the meaning of a title or a word, and at the same time breaks away from the viewer’s fixed expectations. Just like Lohaus’ other works, this image is a tribute to intangibility, transience and uncertainty.
