László Moholy-Nagy
Untitled. 1939. Vintage. Photogram. Unique work. 50.5 × 40.4 cm
EUR 50,000–70,000
 
 
 
190 lots of Modern and Contemporary Photography will be up for auction on Friday 26th October at Grisebach in Berlin. Several highlights will come under the hammer including a large vintage print by László Moholy-Nagy. Created in Chicago in 1939, the photogram achieves a powerful visual impression with its silky matt blacks and depths and its bright, explosive and energetic centre while at the same time resonating with an intense musicality (EUR 50,000– 70,000).

Some ten years earlier Edward Steichen produced a sensuously seductive ower still life. The silky petals appear to dance and it could be termed a portrait for it is much more than just a realistically illustrative piece. This is a piece of museum quality from the estate of the artist’s widow Joanna Steichen (EUR 50,000–70,000).

Thomas Struth
„Paradise 24, Sao Francisco de Xavier“ Brazil. 2001. C-Print, Diasec. 210 × 271 cm
EUR 60,000–80,000
 
 
 
Thomas Struth was able to discover his version of paradise in Brazil. He has created a monumental work on 210 x 271 cm which draws the viewer into the dense, green and succulent jungle (EUR 60,000–80,000).

Hiroshi Sugimoto guides the viewer into a drive-in cinema. In his time exposure photograph the screen erected between the trees appears white, the lm erased as if by a ghostly hand. An enchanting spectacle, a scrutiny of viewing habits and temporality and a life subject for the artist, for whom „theatres“ have always been an ever more important theme. (EUR 15,000–20,000).
