Katharina Sieverding, Deutschland wird Deutscher (Germany is becoming more German), 1992
Original b/w photograph, with an adjoined sheet stating 'Für Rudi, Stuttgart, 5 5 1992', signed by the artist in pencil. The photowork derives from the private collection of Rudi Fuchs, the director of Gemeente Museum The Hague at that time. In mint state.
'Deutschland wird Deutscher' was made by Sieverding (1944-) in reaction to the radical right-wing attacks after the fall of the Berlin Wall. Displayed in a huge and controversial poster campaign all over Berlin in 1993, it became one of her most famous works. Added is a postcard featuring Marilyn Monroe on recto, handwritten text on verso, sent to Fuchs by Sieverding in 1991. (total 2)
