Hand signed and numbered 26/200 by the artist on the front 26 × 19 3/4 inches Unframed This whimsical print by Horst Antes was chosen to be included in the 1975 portfolio for the Swiss Society for Fine Arts (Grafikmappe des Schweizerischen Kunstvereins) as part of an international portfolio of prints by many other world renowned artists. Hand signed and numbered from the edition of 200. This work is quite rare, especially stateside. Catalogue Raisonne reference: Lutze 629 Horst Antes Biography Horst Antes was born in Heppenheim an der Bergstrasse on October 28, 1936. From 1957 to 1959 he studied at the State Academy of Fine Arts in Karlsruhe under HAP Grieshaber. At the age of 23, the young artist was awarded the prize of the Hanoverian economy (Pankofer Prize, Baden Baden). In 1960 he received a scholarship from the Kulturkreis im Bundesverband der Deutschen Industrie, Cologne. The first head painting in profile “Head with red cap” is created. Horst Antes was awarded the “Junger Westen” art prize and the “Prix des artistes” at the II Biennale des “juenes artistes”, Paris in 1961. After that he lived and worked for one year in Florence with a scholarship from Villa Romana. He then went to Rome for a year to the Villa Massimo. From 1965 to 1968 Horst Antes taught at the State Academy of Fine Arts in Karlsruhe (1967-68 as a visiting professor). In 1966 he participated for the second time in the XXXIII Venice Biennale, received the Unesco Prize for Painting and the second scholarship of the Aldegrever Society, Münster. Horst Antes’ interest in indigenous peoples led him for the first time in 1972 to various Indian reservations in the USA. The Falklands War in 1982 shocked the artist deeply and led to a change in his subjects: the “head figure” disappears from the pictorial work and the first house paintings are created.
