Peinture suspendue

Suspended painting

August 1972

In the collection of Mia and Martin Visser.

White acrylic paint on cotton canvas woven in alternating white and orange vertical stripes, each 8.7 (± 0.3) cm, wide, on the front and back sides, cable, 80 rings.

380 x 760 cm. (on unstretched canvas).

Bergeyk, the Netherlands


Description

Paint on orange and white striped cloth, hung vertically from a cable which divides a barrel vaulted hangar in two equal halves– open/visible – and disappearing, on demand, to restore the full undivided space of the hanger by a pulling system similar to that used for theater curtains.

The dimensions of the canvas correspond to the largest rectangle possible in the barrel-vaulted structure of the hangar.

Acquired by the Kroller-Muller Museum in 1984, the piece must be hung in a room dividing the space in two lengthwise.
