Catalogue Note
"Hartung is a master of the emotional gesture, of that moment when the stroke becomes a conscious voice of expression within the context of the picture, not a matter of experiment, but an element in an integral space where the spheres of creative action derive from their specific form." (Umbro Apollonio, Hans Hartung, Milan 1966, p. 7)
