Nr 10 2020

This is "Nr 10" by Armin Andreas Pangerl, an artwork of undisclosed date, realized with unknown materials on an approximately 70 by 50-centimeter surface. The immediate visual impression is that of a densely inscribed page, bisected vertically into two distinct fields. The lines of text, primarily handwritten, dominate the space, but are interspersed with geometric abstractions and textual elaborations. The artist's marks weave a complex tapestry, challenging our habits of reading and viewing. This visual layering evokes both the meticulousness of illuminated manuscripts and the immediacy of graffiti art. Pangerl's use of language is not merely communicative but structural, with words and phrases forming patterns that guide the eye and engage the mind. The artwork destabilizes the conventional relationship between text and image, inviting us to consider how language itself can become a visual medium. In closing, the deliberate and thoughtful composition speaks to the enduring power of art to challenge our perceptions and provoke new modes of thinking. The piece invites ongoing interpretation.
