Wooden box with spikes. Published by Edition Quintus, Antwerp. Souvenir for Verheyen by Günther Uecker, created in 1989, is a sculptural object crafted from wood and embedded with metal spikes, measuring 30 x 9.5 x 9.5 cm. Part of a limited edition of 18, this work pays homage to fellow Zero Group artist Otto Piene and reflects Uecker’s enduring exploration of texture, rhythm, and energy through the tactile language of nails. The seemingly violent yet precise insertion of spikes evokes tension between aggression and control, transforming an ordinary wooden box into a charged aesthetic statement. Uecker’s use of repetitive materials and minimalist form aligns with post-war German abstraction and his meditative artistic practice.

What is ‘light and space’?
The Light and Space Movement refers to loosely affiliated art movements connected to minimalism, geometric abstraction, and op art that originated in Southern California in the 1960s. Greatly influenced by artist John McLaughlin, these artists focused on sensory phenomena such as light, perception, and space as central elements of their work. They also incorporated cutting-edge technologies from the aerospace and engineering industries to develop light-filled and sensuous objects, creating immersive experiences that emphasize the viewer's perception.
