"I have never regarded myself as an aggressor. The aggression I am imputed to does not exist. It is tenderness with a certain impertinence, a kind of intrusiveness. This tenderness is a longing for love."
Günther Uecker, quote after: www.ndr.de/kultur/geschichte/koepfe/Guenther-Uecker-Viele-Naegel-grosse-Kunst.
"The field's motion
The shimmering light
The wind on the water
Language of the dissolving signs of beauty
Hovering clouds
The white beach
Where the visible, crowned by light, goes lost in the invisible"
(Günter Uecker, 1964)
