UK Guide for Prospective Buyers Each Phillips auction is governed by the applicable Conditions of Sale and Authorship Warranty. All prospective bidders should read these sections carefully. They govern the purchasing agreement under which you buy at auction from Phillips. They may be also amended by saleroom addendum or auctioneer’s announcement during the auction. The complete Conditions of Sale and Authorship Warranty applicable to this auction (Version 9/12/17) are found online at phillips.com, along with detailed information on each lot. Estimates The auction estimates indicated for each lot in this catalogue do not include Buyer’s Premium (applicable on each lot), or VAT or Artist’s Resale Right (where such charges apply). Details of these charges are given below. All Lots are Subject to ‘Buyer’s Premium’ In addition to the hammer (final bid) price, a buyer’s premium is due from all successful buyers. The buyer’s premium is a commission based on the hammer price payable by the buyer as part of the total purchase price at the following rates: 25% of the hammer price up to and including £180,000; 20% of the portion of the hammer price above £180,000 up to and including £3,000,000; and 12.5% of the portion of the hammer price above £3,000,000. Condition and Condition Reports Phillips does not warrant or guarantee condition on any lot. Solely as a convenience to clients, Phillips may provide condition reports on many lots, which are also available online on the lot detail pages. If there is not a condition report available, that is not a representation that a lot is in perfect condition. While condition reports are prepared honestly and carefully, our staff are not professional restorers or trained conservators. We therefore encourage all prospective buyers to inspect all lots at our pre-sale exhibitions, and contact our staff with any questions. Bidding at Auction You may bid in the auction in person, online, on the phone, or by placing an absentee bid. The easiest way to arrange or register to bid at auction is to set up a client account online. Go to our homepage, phillips.com and fill out the account form. When you want to register for an auction, click Register on sale pages or lot detail pages, and you’ll confirm your account details, be asked for a credit card number for identification purposes and our Bids Department will process your request. We recommend registering at least 24 hours prior to sale to ensure that you can bid. Good luck! Some lots are sold under special conditions. Phillips uses the following symbols to designate these lots: O ◊ Guaranteed Property The seller of lots designated with the symbol O has been guaranteed a minimum price fnanced solely by Phillips. Where the guarantee is provided by a third party or jointly by us and a third party, the property will be denoted with the symbols O ◊. When a third party has fnanced all or part of our fnancial interest in a lot, it assumes all or part of the risk that the lot will not be sold and will be remunerated via a fxed fee, a percentage of the hammer price or the buyer’s premium or some combination of the foregoing. The third party may bid on the guaranteed lot during the auction. If the third party is the successful bidder, the
UK_TCA DAY_OCT17_2-71.indd 6
remuneration may be netted against the purchase price. Where Phillips has guaranteed a minimum price on every lot in the catalogue, Phillips will not designate each lot with the symbol(s) for the guaranteed property but will state our fnancial interest at the front of the catalogue. ∆ Property in Which Phillips Has an Ownership Interest Lots with this symbol indicate that Phillips owns the lot in whole or in part or has an economic interest in the lot equivalent to an ownership interest. •No Reserve Unless indicated by a •, all lots in this catalogue are offered subject to a reserve. A reserve is the confidential value established between Phillips and the seller and below which a lot may not be sold. The reserve for each lot will not exceed the low pre-sale estimate. ♠ Property Subject to the Artist’s Resale Right Lots marked with ♠ are subject to the Artist’s Resale Right calculated as a percentage of the hammer price (in EUR) and payable as part of the purchase price as follows: Royalty Rate: From 0 to 50,000 (4%) From 50,000.01 to 200,000 (3%) From 200,000.01 to 350,000 (1%) From 350,000.01 to 500,000 (0.5%) Exceeding 500,000 (0.25%) The Artist’s Resale Right applies where the hammer price is EUR 1,000 or more, subject to a maximum royalty per lot of EUR 12,500. Calculation of the Artist’s Resale Right will be based on the pounds sterling/euro reference exchange rate quoted on the date of the sale by the European Central Bank. †, §, ‡, or Ω Property Subject to VAT Where there is no VAT symbol, Phillips is able to use the Auctioneer’s Margin Scheme and VAT will not normally be charged on the hammer price. An amount equivalent to VAT at 20% on the buyer’s premium will be included in the buyer’s premium. Property with a † symbol will be sold under normal UK VAT rules, and VAT will normally be charged at 20% on both the hammer price and buyer’s premium. Property with a § symbol and sold to buyers whose registered address is in the EU will be assumed to be remaining in the EU and will be treated as having no symbol (unless informed otherwise by a buyer). Property sold with a ‡ (5%) or Ω (20%) symbol has been imported from outside the EU to be sold at auction under temporary admission, and offered under the Auctioneer’s Margin Scheme at the respective % on the hammer price and an amount in lieu of VAT at 20% on the buyer’s premium. The foregoing is for summary purposes only. Please see the online auction catalogue and Conditions of Sale at phillips.com/ buy and specifically the section ‘VAT AND OTHER TAX INFORMATION FOR BUYERS’ for a more detailed description of the VAT symbols used in this Buyer’s Guide, as well as any VAT refunds that you may be qualified to receive.

‘I am interested in the presence of evil, or more precisely, how the possibility for evil is found in every endeavour.’ Adrian Ghenie

Adrian Ghenie’s Burning Books, 2014, expertly traverses the boundaries between abstraction and fguration. An exquisite example of the artist’s exploration of collective memory, the work reconfrms his status as one of the most celebrated contemporary painters practising today. Evoking the sinister history of the National Socialist regime, Burning Books is a psychologically charged depiction of the destruction of cultural worth. The sumptuous palette of scraped and swirled paint suggests the dark sky and levitating smouldering pages which foat towards the heavens in great whirls of smoke. Rendered in perfected impasto, the present work encapsulates Ghenie’s engagement with the horrors of fascism, whilst also serving as a paradigm of contemporary painting. The book burning in front of the Humboldt University on the 10th May 1933 has etched itself in the cultural memory of twentieth century European history. Exuding an atmosphere of decay and destruction, the bright orange fames rage, fuelled by the pyre of stacked books; illuminated against the eerie night sky the fre spits insidiously from the bonfre. Following the wisps of translucent smoke the viewer’s gaze rises to the dreamlike swirls of pink and blues, eventually reaching the scraped furry of sooty paint in the night sky. The monstrosity of the scene is beguiling through the juxtaposition of the harsh obliterating qualities of the fre with the lyrical arrangement of colourful brushstrokes that seem to dance in the smoke above the inferno below. This colourful contrast against the sombre palette enlivens the scene, transporting the viewer from the black and white infamous
image of the book burnings, to a temporal reality where we are physically viewing the act in hyped technicolour. Addressing the traumatic histories of twentieth century Europe, Burning Books draws on the visceral brushwork of Francis Bacon and the textural layering of Anselm Kiefer. Opening a frank dialogue with the past, the work is multilayered in meaning; both refective of historical events, drawing upon iconic characters from history, Ghenie’s constructed worlds span the stratums of the artistic canon. The paint has been dripped, poured and scraped across the canvas, destroying the fatness of the plane to highlight the emotional intensity of the piece. Thick impasto is applied and then furiously removed from the canvas and this violence of method contrasts the gentle dream-like swirling brushstrokes intermingled in the sof mist of smoke. The spectator is confronted with thick slashes of paint, which lends the work an almost three-dimensionality, transporting us to that rainy evening at Bebelplatz, Berlin. A member of the Cluj School in Romania, Ghenie grew up under the repressive Communist regime of Nicolae Ceaușescu and echoes of this restrictive regime can be heard across his oeuvre. The visceral pictorial language of his painting has gained him international acclaim and in 2015, a year afer the present work was executed, Ghenie represented Romania at the Venice Biennale. The artist’s decision to use the medium of painting to address the decimation of culture suggests a small victory, a liberating act of expression which cannot be quashed.

‘Some may think these faces are my self-portrait, and many people think that these faces are absolutely absurd. In fact, those who think that these faces are funny are just part of my ordinary audience; those who are more professional and more cultural will fnd that what I paint is not laughing faces, but the extreme end of the spectrum of laughter – that is to say, ultimate sorrow.’ – Yue Minjun Yue Minjun’s fxed grin is an icon of contemporary Chinese painting. His exploration of laughter and humour permeates his oeuvre, lending his work an instantly recognizable quality, elevating the laughing motif to one of the most signifcant symbols in contemporary Chinese art. One of China’s leading Cynical Realist painters, nothing is quite as it seems in the esteemed artist’s large canvasses. A dynamic example of Yue’s psychologically complex paintings, Hometown, painted in 2005, is sleek and highly aesthetic in its execution. With its three cartoon-like protagonists leaping across the picture plane, the hysteria is infectious, drawing us into Yue’s uncanny microcosm. A key canvas from the artist’s Hats series, which he commenced in 2004, the present work references societal tensions within China, as well as raw human emotion, namely joy and sorrow. Yue’s Hometown depicts three laughing, ruddy faces with scrubbed, pink skin and perfectly square teeth, their bodies rendered to the point of absurdity, which draw upon Minjun’s own image in a self-referential remodelling. The quiet scenery in the background is paradoxically peaceful; the river seems calm, the sunset sky is coloured blue and pink and in the
distance there is a boat, bobbing serenely at anchor. The title refers to the famous painting A Memory of Hometown by late artist Chen Yifei, who passed away in 2005, the same year as the present work. Chen’s painting depicts the ancient Double Bridge in Zhouzhuang, one of the earliest river towns in China which gained even more notoriety for its close proximity to the nearby industrial complex of Kunshan City, a centre for science and technology factories. A potential reaction to the death of Chen, Yue’s Hometown depicts the Double Bridge, while fgures wearing Nokia hats levitate above the still water, creating tension in the suspenseful moment. Symbolic of the noisy intrusion of industry on a peaceful, ancient way of life, Yue expertly suspends us in a moment of juxtaposition, our view maintained by the competing energies at play. As well as confronting contemporary societal and industrial concerns in China through his joyous visual parodies, Yue’s Hometown also expertly explores the very extremes of the human condition. The three boyish fgures appear to be engaged in jest, jumping in the water, their laughter infectious. On closer inspection, their interplay reveals much deeper tensions; the cloned fgures are uncomfortably close together and the tangle of their bodies creates an uneasy mass of limbs. Their gleeful irreverence and scrunched faces are almost violent in their excess, their laughter on the verge of tearful sobbing. Laughing until they cry, the soaring fgures embody deep sorrow as well as mirthful abandon. Yue’s fgures fing themselves freely through the air, expertly traversing the old and new in Chinese culture.

‘This is a big word, violence, but for art (and in particular painting and sculpture) to continue to exist in the brave new world of explosive electronic imagery, such aggression is necessary, in content and manufacture…The behaviour of Penck’s art is certainly brash and boisterous and aggressive. That is why, somehow, he has been one of our great tough and unconventional contemporaries who, just by being there, has paved the way for some of our younger ones such as Damien Hirst and Julian Schnabel’. (Rudi Fuchs in A. R. Penck, Die Achtziger Jahre, exh. cat., Julius Werner, Berlin, 23 February – 27 March 2008, n.p.) A.R. Penck, one of Germany’s most celebrated artists, utilised an iconic primal, semi-abstract style which has made his simple yet confrontational imagery instantly recognizable on an international stage. Within the artists of the Neue Wilden movement, who found motivation in mythology, fguration and bright, brash tones, Penck’s continued use of intense colour and hasty, broad brushstrokes set him apart from dominant avant-garde aesthetics. From the onset Penck set himself apart, pursuing an intense interest in developing a system to unite art and language whilst addressing complex socio-political themes. His childhood preoccupation with science fction encouraged a deeper reading into the workings and implications of information theories and cybernetics. Subsequently, this concern began to be refected in his prolifc output of work and the stick fgure, recognisable in many of his paintings, became a motif of a new system of communication that combined text, symbol and image. The primitive, innovative and cave-like drawings challenged and unsettled notions about the nature of modernist contemporary art. Herewith Penck activated a new and exciting attempt to destabilise the censorship he had faced from the German Democratic Republic. The following selection of works, executed throughout the 1970s and 1980s, ofers an insight into Penck’s unswerving preoccupation with what became known as Standart; a fake alphabet of sorts that the artist himself designed.
UK_TCA DAY_OCT17_72-143.indd 78
The loose capricious confguration of curving lines and fgures of Belagerung und Einnahme Von Beirut I at frst appear random and confused, yet Penck employed them with such clarity and vigour that they expressively work beyond the specifcs of narrative. The hectic swaying movement of tall, elongated stick fgures is surrounded by various objects and crudely rendered animals, pictograms and calligraphic squiggles, tumbling and plunging across the canvas, many of them inverted. The motion captured within the painting conjures monumental energy; the hidden, arcane references elude the spectator whilst rousing a sense of familiarity. Whilst the execution of the paintings may appear fairly rough, as Penck’s sense of conviction grew so did the boldness of his work. In both Untitled works, the bold brushstrokes and expressive shapes sit afront the dimensionality of the canvas whilst the stick fgures engulf the picture, growing stronger and more powerful. The sense of movement within each painting becomes almost fevered as the fgures wildly jump, dance or fght. Penck delicately dismantles the mysteries of preconceived notions of artistic creation; the washes of vibrant greens, reds, blues and blacks in Untitled are added in violent, almost explosive bursts. Charismatic and dynamic, the present works are highly communicative. In devising suggestive narrative scenes, the present selection spanning a decade of the artist’s oeuvre attempts to fnd a universal language - one that could address the trauma, sadness, and loss that followed the Second World War whilst also afecting viewers beyond Germany. Reviving painting as a crucial practice for communication, Penck has become synonymous with a painting style that is fgurative whilst fuelled with relevant social and political content, a style both gestural and replete with semiotic impact. His fgures, seemingly from a prehistoric space in time, are fused with concerns of contemporary society, creating a selection of works that continue to be as socially relevant as when they were frst made.

Through its evocative painterly surface and monumental scale, Hundekunst, painted in 2000, is exemplary of Georg Baselitz’s daring oeuvre. One of the most provocative painters of the twentieth century, the artist’s dramatic canvasses fully envelop the viewer, drawing us into his complex microcosms, constructed through his exquisite marriage of selected colour and expressionistic form. A paradigm of the artist’s iconic inversion technique, the present work conveys Baselitz’s progressive experimentation with altering our perception of images. The upturned works, such as Hundekunst, are a development of the artist’s revered Fracture series, in this case from a body of canvases executed in the winter of 1999 through to the spring of 2000 in which Baselitz explored the recurring motif of the dog. Expertly traversing the lines of fgurative representation and abstraction, Hundekunst diverges from the artist’s earlier Hund paintings through his exploration of the psychoanalytic notions of Sigmund Freud. In the present work, translucent swathes of fuid paint wash over the picture plane, contrasting with the central fgure of the petted dog; Baselitz creates both an aesthetic depth and visual levity, refecting the various conceptual stratums which weave through the extensive canvas. Highly expressive in style and powerful in tonality, Baselitz’s work taps into recognised clichés and impulses, cracking them open to reveal an alternative picture. In Hundekunst, the artist transports the fgure of the dog, man’s sidekick, to the centre of the large portrait, providing an open stage for the normally overlooked underdog. Instead of simply furnishing a classical or pastoral scene, here the dog is the focus of our gaze, commanding the canvas with its animated presence. Originating from a series of dog works, a selection of which were exhibited at Baselitz’s 2015 show, Sigmund’s Cave, at Contemporary Fine Arts, Berlin, the group developed Baselitz’s dog motif, evident in his earlier works. Paintings from the 1999 - 2000 series are also united in their repetition of the word ‘Sigmund’ which is daubed onto the upper centre of the present work, immediately notifying the viewer that in these works, language and form are in fact masks and codes of a Freudian Georg Baselitz photographed by Lothar Wolleh in 1971 © Georg Baselitz 2017
universe. In Hundekunst, Baselitz’s inverted, largely symmetrical painting, with the recurring emblematic motif of the same shaggy dog, explores the unconscious, creating a painterly void where repressed thought is thrust to the fore. Everything that has been suppressed is at once fipped; suddenly Baselitz has turned the world on its head. Physically painting this series of works on the foor, the present lot is exemplary of the artist’s technique of crawling on all fours in his studio to create his canvasses, ofen leaving traceable feet and hand marks, like distant traces of primitive and carnal desire. The image of the dog in Baselitz’s oeuvre can also be traced to his earlier work, where dogs were utilised as heraldic symbols of an allegorical ideal. Afer moving to the Swabian countryside in 1966, Baselitz entered a new chapter in his practice and began working on his Fracture paintings, employing a visual library of traditional German motifs, such as huntsmen, bears, dogs and cows. Removing and redeploying elements of the composition, the artist created a new breed of aesthetic archetypes based on folkloric imagery. Through the fracturing of his idyllic protagonists, Baselitz removed their symbolic potency; surgically distorting the subject matter, the artist deconstructed motifs that had once been so proudly Germanic. Whereas other post war German artists, such as Gerhard Richter, obscured traumatic imagery of the Second World War in his pivotal photo paintings, focusing on the feeting nature of nostalgic, scrapbook-like memories, Baselitz employed a form of expressive distortion to experiment with darker facades of cultural memory and the national psyche. With their muscular bodies and snubbed snouts, the dogs portrayed in the Fracture works are emblematic of the hardy life of the mythical rural ideal. Through Baselitz’s aesthetic dissection, their ferocity is minimalized, the viewer pitying the artist’s brutal act of severing their animalistic bodies. In the late sixties, Baselitz’s technique of rotating his canvasses 180 degrees further liberated his imagery from symbolic power, detracting the objectifying gaze of the viewer in order to free his robust dogs from subjective associations. In Hundekunst, the dog motif has become domesticated; the curled, longhaired coat of the dog is tactile, his innocent gaze loyal and trusting. Baselitz’s farm dogs are suddenly transfgured, now cherished, trained and petted by an anonymous hand. Yet despite its rendering as a well-loved pet, Baselitz’s dog is presented in an almost quasi-religious manner. As we gaze up at the central fgure, the frenetic black brushstrokes of the artist channel a fervent vitality which flls the canvas. As we ardently gaze upwards, the creature appears like a mythic idol, although upside down. It is this biting wit, combined with the multiple readings of Baselitz’s work, which makes his canvasses so unique and continually intriguing. Self-referential in subject matter, Baselitz’s dogs perfectly convey the artist’s key preoccupation that our perception of events, people, animals, colours and shapes can be completely altered through presentation. Like a kaleidoscope the artist expertly flters subject matter through his variety of compositions and his rich tapestry of freed associations, completely altering the viewer’s opinion on every glance.

A reoccurring motif throughout Albert Oehlen’s extensive and divergent oeuvre, the tree motif acts as a conceptual foundation upon which the artist developed a profound refection of representation and abstraction. Simplifed in their composition, the present works contain bold signifers, such as a thick trunk and tangled branches, which mirror the twisting roots below. The absence of background liberates the trees from their natural setting in a traditional landscape painting. Instead the forms foat within the expanse of the picture plane. Oehlen’s characteristic shif from fguration is further emphasised by the monochrome colour palette, the trees are demarcated using thick expressive brushstrokes demonstrative of the artist’s preference to portray the process by which artworks are made. The limited palette prevents any tonal distraction and encourages the spectator to enter into a state of sublimity, triggered by the organic tree forms. Concerned with the subjectivity of aesthetics, the artist notes, ‘what I see are unbearably ugly tatters, which are then transformed at the last moment, as if by magic, into something beautiful’ (Albert Oehlen quoted in ‘Albert Oehlen im Gespräch mit Wilfried Dickhof und Martin Prinzhorn’, Wilfried Dickhof, ed., Kunst Heute 7, Cologne, 1991, p. 78). In the present lots, the tree is presented as an experimental subject, which Oehlen explored as a parameter to test
UK_TCA DAY_OCT17_72-143.indd 90
the boundaries between abstraction and figuration. Oehlen’s tree paintings track his artistic investigations exploring differing notions of perception, a journey the artist first embarked upon in 1988 together with friend and fellow artist Martin Kippenberger. Devoutly focused upon following abstraction, the artist asserted ‘I thought that art history went from figurative to abstract. And I should do the same. I should have the same development in my life as art history’, (Albert Oehlen quoted in Glenn O’Brien, ‘Albert Oehlen’, Interview, May 2009, p. 106). Precursors to the signifcant and esteemed Elevator Paintings, the link between these bodies of work was aptly highlighted in the Gagosian show, Elevator Paintings: Trees (28 February – 15 April 2017). The Elevator Paintings presented the artist’s absolute transition into the realm of abstract art through his tree paintings. The present works, therefore, mark an important stage in Oehlen’s artistic culmination. Just as the raw sheets of both works bare the soul of their creative process, alongside their visible brushstrokes, so Oehlen encourages viewers to join him along every stage of his creative journey, in following the development of the tree motif in the build-up of the Elevator Paintings.

Painted in 1984, Ulrike is an exquisite rendering of the female visage belonging to a series of four works by Martin Kippenberger. Exhibited at Galerie Six Friedrich, Munich, in 1984, the year of its creation, Ulrike was created for the group exhibition Deutsch-Sprechende Galeristinnen (Germanspeaking Female Gallerists). Five artists, Werner Büttner, Georg Herold, Albert Oehlen, Markus Oehlen and Martin Kippenberger depicted four female gallerists for the exhibition. In the present work, Kippenberger depicts Ulrike Schmela, daughter of the esteemed gallerist Alfred Schmela, whose infuential gallery in Dusseldorf pioneered some of the most prolifc artists of the twentieth century in post-war Germany. Cast in an illuminating swathe of light, Ulrike is presented to us by Kippenberger, strong and confident in her pose. The smooth and soft brushstrokes define Ulrike’s facial features and her knowing smile looks directly at the viewer, suggesting an amicable familiarity. The chiaroscuro evident in Kippenberger’s handling of light and shade provides the work with tonal warmth, suggesting admiration, perhaps even adoration. A delicately rendered portrait, Kippenberger does not use the quasi-decorative framework that appears in each of the three other portraits in the series, which create a poster-like effect. Instead, in this particular portrait, Ulrike sits alone. The lack of a multifarious background allows her presence to hold our gaze, suggesting that Kippenberger wished to focus entirely on the sitter. The present work defies any taboo subject matter, instead conveying dynamism through the tension created between artist and sitter. Suspended in an earnest moment of friendship and esteem, the present work gives us an intimate insight
UK_TCA DAY_OCT17_72-143.indd 98
into the life of a woman at the forefront of contemporary twentieth century art. As Kippenberger continued to explore diferent styles he began to initiate the use of portraiture as another venue for the elaboration of his artistic output and very soon it became one of the many central components of his oeuvre. Removed from a more traditional portrait aesthetic, there is a casual air to the present work; the sitter props her arm on the chair, her stance appears calm, comfortable and at ease. Ulrike Schmela inherited her father’s ground-breaking gallery when he passed away in 1980, assuming his reputation for showing the most cutting edge artists of the time. Exhibiting Yves Klein’s monochrome paintings in Germany for the frst time, showing works from the ZERO group when the movement was in its infancy and working with Joseph Beuys to hold his frst exhibition in a commercial gallery, Alfred Schmela’s impact in the German art world was meteoric. The present work, conveying Ulrike’s warmth and approachability, is unequivocal in its personal insight of the Schmela family. Kippenberger’s signature aesthetic is borne out of his diversity of style and exploration of materials. Drawing on the subcultures of Punk and New-Wave as well as techniques of Neo-Expressionism and appropriation, Kippenberger’s artistic exploration of communication and representation is manifested in his prodigious output of paintings, objects, installations and multiples to books, posters and cards. His paintings ofer an exceptional insight into his explosive charisma, characterised by his playful attitude towards the medium of painting and indeed his subjects.

Having visited Warhol’s frst solo pop art exhibition, Andy Warhol: Campbell’s Soup Cans, at the Ferus Gallery in 1962, Richard Pettibone began appropriating and reproducing his own interpretations of the artist’s iconic silkscreens. Infuenced by the work of other artists, Pettibone is celebrated for blurring the boundary between the original and the replica, masterfully re-contextualizing some of the most renowned masterpieces from the major protagonists of twentieth century art.
