12 Multiples Terragraphs (with sand) on canvas mounted on wood in a limited edition of 36 hand signed & numbered // Ouroboros #5 by Günther Uecker is a terragraph print with sand, blending texture and symbolism in a unique, tactile medium. Created in 2018 as part of a limited edition of 36, this artwork features circular, swirling patterns reminiscent of the ancient Ouroboros symbol, representing cycles and eternity. The golden sand patterns on a neutral background give the piece a raw, earthy quality, with dynamic brush-like strokes forming concentric rings and gestures that evoke movement and energy. Uecker’s use of sand as a medium emphasizes the transient and cyclical nature of life, inviting the viewer to consider themes of renewal and the continuous passage of time.

What is late modernism?
Late Modernism refers to the continuation and evolution of Modernist principles in art, architecture, and literature from the mid-20th century into the late 20th century. This movement maintains a focus on form, abstraction, and the rejection of traditional styles, but it often incorporates more complexity and ambiguity compared to early Modernism. Late Modernism explores themes such as alienation, identity, and the fragmentation of reality, reflecting the social and cultural shifts of the post-war period. It is seen in the works of architects like Louis Kahn and artists like Francis Bacon, who pushed the boundaries of Modernism while responding to the changing world around them.
