Robert Kulicke
Pink Flowers

c. 1960s

About the Item

In Bouquet with Pink Background, Robert Kulicke distills the still life tradition into its most essential forms. A single-tone bouquet of black flowers, stark and silhouetted, sits delicately against a smooth, blush-pink backdrop. With no variation in the flowers’ hue, Kulicke emphasizes shape and contour, inviting the viewer to experience the bouquet as both object and abstraction. The flatness of the background and the graphic quality of the blooms give the work a modernist edge, yet its overall effect remains soft and meditative. As with much of Kulicke’s work, there’s a sense of reverence for the subject—a quiet offering of beauty in its simplest terms. Balancing minimalism with emotional subtlety, Bouquet with Pink Background transforms floral still life into a study of contrast, elegance, and restraint.
