Color screen print, signed by the artist. - Printed by Siebdrucktechnik, Essen. - Published by Edition Merian, Krefeld. Literature: Galerie Rottluff (ed.): Otto Piene - Werkverzeichnis der Druckgrafik 1960-76, Karlsruhe 1977, cat. rais. no. 149-158. // Addis Abeba II unfolds in cool silver-grey and black, a study in metallic monochrome. A dark, billowing head crowns the sheet, and at its centre a finely stippled orb glows like a seed or distant sun, ringed by frothing white matter. A slender stem descends across a smooth, luminous grey gradient, lending the image the hush of a lunar landscape. Stripped of colour, it reveals the pure structure of Piene's cosmic vocabulary. Signed in 1972 and printed by Siebdrucktechnik, Essen, this screenprint is among the most subtly atmospheric plates of the Addis Abeba portfolio.

What is the Zero Movement?
ZERO was an art movement founded by Otto Piene and Heinz Mack, aiming to develop into a large international and cross-border movement. The name ZERO originated from a magazine founded by Heinz Mack in 1957, which became a platform for the group's ideas. The magazine was published for several years before ceasing in 1967. The ZERO movement sought to create a new beginning in art, emphasizing light, space, and movement, and became influential in post-war European art.
