Sketch 1965

"Sketch" is a 1965 ink drawing by the German artist Wols, who died in 1951. This work showcases Wols's signature style of gestural abstraction. The composition is comprised of fragmented, biomorphic shapes, which evoke a sense of movement and energy. The lines, drawn with a quick and deliberate hand, are both precise and spontaneous, suggesting a depth of expression beyond the visual. This piece is typical of Wols's later works which explore themes of nature, humanity, and the subconscious.
