Unique Object Wall Plate Wusch IV

With the wall piece "Wusch IV," Karl Otto Götz (1914-2017) translated his expressive visual language directly onto Meissen porcelain-an impressive fusion of postwar expressive art and centuries-old craftsmanship. Measuring 56 x 75 cm, the format lends the composition a commanding presence, allowing ample space for the artist's gestural dynamism to unfold.

Götz, one of the leading figures of abstract Informel, developed a pictorial language of unmistakable vitality. In "Wusch IV," movement, spontaneity, and rhythmic energy converge into a powerful composition. Sweeping, impulsive brushstrokes of black traverse the luminous white surface, creating a compelling interplay of density and dissolution, of controlled gesture and apparent freedom.

Rendered on Meissen porcelain, the work takes on a distinctive resonance. The flawlessly smooth, radiant white surface heightens the contrast and lends the gestural lines a new precision. The depth of the black and the brilliance of the porcelain enter into a dialogue that underscores Götz's expressive hand while opening an entirely new material dimension.
