"Schrift-Bild" – "Scripture image"
The artist Carlfriedrich Claus (1930-1998), who is regarded as a co-founder of visual poetry, worked in Annaberg-Buchholz in complete seclusion and only communicated with the world through lively correspondence. In his language sheets, he explored the connection between language, thought and society.
In addition to works by Carlfriedrich Claus, the exhibition shows artistic positions with different strategies in which writing is an elementary component of the image.
