Gert Tobias and Uwe Tobias, Untitled (figure), 2005, Woodcut, 78 3/4 x 64 15/16"The Museum of Modern Art, New York. Fund for the Twenty-First Century.
I am constantly attracted to the sort of colors (brights mixed with grey) and paint quality (flat but with texture and signs of decay) in Gert and Uwe Tobias' large scale woodcuts at MoMA, now through February 25, 2008. An interesting side note: Gert and Uwe are twins (b. 1973) and collaborate on their artwork which includes woodcuts, drawings and sculpture.
