Stehende Dame mit Fächer, Kniestück 

Otto Scholderer rendered this drawing of a standing woman with a fan using graphite on paper, an exercise in the interplay of light and shadow. The composition's simplicity draws us to the delicate, tentative lines which suggest form without fully defining it. Scholderer's marks articulate the woman's figure, her dress, and the fan, each rendered with an economy of detail that invites the viewer's imagination. There is a sense of provisionality, as if the drawing captures a fleeting impression rather than a definitive statement. Here, the structure is built through suggestion, allowing light to interact with form in an ethereal manner. The lack of precise contours challenges the conventional representation of form, and engages with semiotics, where meaning arises not from what is present but from what is absent or implied. By destabilizing fixed representation, Scholderer encourages a dynamic relationship between the viewer and the artwork, a collaboration in constructing meaning.
