Embossed prints, on Eskulan paper, with accompanying text sheet. Signed, dated, and numbered. Co-published by Dorothea van der Koelen, Mainz and Edouard Weiss, Paris. Literature: Van der Koelen, Dorothea and Martin (eds.): Günther Uecker - Opus Liber, Directory of Bibliophile Books and Works, Mainz 2007, Cat. No. L 0203, ill. pp. 507-511. Graphein XII, Kreise, Dreiecke (2002) by Günther Uecker is an embossed print that continues the artist’s profound exploration of tactile visual language and abstract symbolism. Part of the Graphein series, this work features a swirling, spiral-like arrangement of raised dots on handmade Eskulan paper, creating a dynamic structure that radiates outward in a pattern reminiscent of natural formations, constellations, or energy flows. The title, referencing "circles" and "triangles," hints at geometry and universal order, even though the embossed forms themselves are soft and organic. Devoid of ink or color, the image emerges solely through light, texture, and shadow, reinforcing Uecker’s interest in perception beyond the visual. The piece invites close inspection and contemplation, encouraging viewers to engage with the materiality of the surface and the invisible meaning it might contain. Co-published by Dorothea van der Koelen in Mainz and Edouard Weiss in Paris, and issued in an edition of 120 plus additional artist’s proofs, this print reflects Uecker’s meditative approach to form, presence, and the spiritual dimension of mark-making.

What is Process Art?
Process Art is an artistic movement and creative approach where the focus is on the act of creation rather than the final product. The term process in this context refers to the various stages of art-making, including gathering, sorting, associating, and organizing materials and actions. This movement emphasizes the artistic journey and the human expression involved in creating art, rather than the finished piece itself. Process Art is driven by inherent motivation, intentionality, and the rationale behind the actions, viewing the creative process as the true artwork.
