Georg Baselitz: Ohne Hose in Avignon VII
Ohne Hose in Avignon VII (2014) is a limited-edition print produced in aquatint, line etching, and dry point by Georg Baselitz. This work—whose title translates to “Without Trousers in Avignon VII”—is the final in a series of seven prints related to his suite of monumental Avignon paintings (2014) that were unveiled at the 2015 Biennale di Venezia. A nude self-portrait of the artist’s aging body represented upside down, the print uses aquatint to create a vivid yellow ground that surrounds the inverted figure, which is further articulated by gestural etched lines.
