Golvend gerimpeld rose lint op karton c. 1920

"Golvend gerimpeld rose lint op karton" (Wavy Crinkled Rose Ribbon on Cardboard) is a piece of artwork created by Gustav Schnitzler around 1920, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum. This piece showcases Schnitzler's fascination with everyday materials, transforming a simple ribbon into a captivating abstract composition. The delicate pink and blue ribbon, meticulously arranged on the cardboard, creates a rhythmic, almost hypnotic visual pattern. Schnitzler's work, often categorized as assemblage, challenges traditional art forms by incorporating found objects and recontextualizing them as art. This piece, with its focus on texture and repetition, offers a unique perspective on the beauty of the ordinary.
