Penck, A. R. (1939 2017), Dresden / Düsseldorf, Germany
"Water Problems", from "Expedition to the Holy Land", 1983
print (from aquatint etching), 5 / 50, sign. in graphit right at the bottom, glazed/ framed
This print is part of the 1983 "Expedition to the Holy Land" portfolio. The portfolio consists of 15 prints, each in an edition of 50. It was printed at Burston Graphic Centre, Jerusalem and published by Joshua Gessel.
Penck produced this print portfolio in response to a visit he made to Israel and its occupied territories in early 1983. The project was the brainchild of prominent publisher and collector Joshua Gessel, who inivited Penck to portray some of his experiences and impressions of the Holy Land. Penck explored a number of distinct themes and subjects in the portfolios fifteen plates, choosing techniques he considered best suited for each of the particular themes presented.
It is one of Penck's highlights of his artistic work to reflect the complexity and depth of the impressions of this journey.
