About Receiver I
Receiver I ist eine der seltenen limitierten Grafik-Editionen von Tony Cragg. Gehalten in kräftigem Rot, sehen wir abstrakte, ineinander verschachtelte Formen; sie erinnern an Empfängergeräte. Und tatsächlich: Das Motiv des Empfängers findet sich immer wieder im Werk von Tony Cragg, auch großformatige Skulpturen hat er dazu geschaffen.
In diesen Arbeiten setzt sich Cragg mit dem Senden und Empfangen von Informationen auseinander – oder vielmehr mit dem Thema der zwischenmenschlichen Kommunikation.
Receiver I ist ein überaus interessantes Werk, es changiert zwischen Abstraktion und Gegenständlichkeit und spielt mit unserer Wahrnehmung.
