Every formal aspect of a real picture with its smears, its pigments, its medium, its size, in front of you hanging on the wall is a mystery. One of the most peculiar aspect could be the signature itself the way the artist leaves his name (or not) somewhere on the right or the left at the bottom of the picture. What does it says about this person as an artist? As an abstract painter i can not think of adding such a strong formal object like the signature on a painting without it being the painting itself (so i leave my name at the back). Then thinking about the "signature" being the painting itself, i moved to make a signature-painting an actual painting which subject is a "signature". This -AEB 1964 - painting is the third attempt to apprehend the strong formal and meanings implications of using an artist signature as a graphic item a motif of its own. I approached it as if it was a mirror image of a few seconds in the marvelous film showned on TV about Anna-Eva Bergman: "The painter as a light alchemist" which already through filming means let appears this seven letters und numbers, as if it was magical, a phenomenon. Could my painting rendering of these few letters and numbers be a phenomenon too?

Materials used:

Acryl paint, canvas, wooden strecher, light varnish and string.
