Hand-Signed Poster from the Mönchehaus Museum Goslar.
Offset lithograph on smooth, light board.
'White Origami' by Rosemarie Trockel is an offset print composed of three distinct photographic elements arranged on a white ground. At the centre, a crumpled length of Glen plaid fabric — rendered in close-up black-and-white — dominates the sheet, its folds creating a torso-like silhouette. To the lower left, a smaller snapshot shows a heavyset man in white clothing standing with his back to the camera, looking out over water. Behind both images, the white paper is scored and folded into angular geometric cuts, lending the composition a three-dimensional quality. Trockel, who emerged from the male-dominated Mülheimer Freiheit milieu in Cologne while consistently foregrounding feminist critique, frequently uses pattern, textile and the photographic fragment to question the hierarchies embedded in both aesthetics and everyday objects. The Glen plaid — a fabric coded by class and gender — pressed into a body-shaped crumple, and placed alongside an anonymous rear-view figure, carries that interrogation into the language of print.

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.
