überhängend 2000

"überhängend" (overhanging), a 2000 sculpture by Joachim Bandau, exemplifies minimalist art. Composed of two rectangular steel forms, one positioned slightly above and overlapping the other, the piece explores the interplay of space and form. The raw, weathered steel surface adds a tactile and industrial element, while the simple arrangement invites contemplation on balance and tension. The title, referencing the precarious placement of the top form, evokes a sense of subtle instability, adding an element of intrigue to the otherwise austere composition.
