Crucifixio
Price: 135,000 DKK
Acrylic on canvas
180 x 140 cm.
Crucifixio is a powerful and uncompromising painting by Christian Lemmerz, reducing the crucifixion motif to a dark, almost disintegrating human figure. Layers of black and grey acrylic are scraped, dripped, and etched into the canvas, creating a raw and physical surface. The figure appears both trapped within and dissolving into its surroundings, evoking pain, sacrifice, and existential struggle. The work balances between figuration and abstraction, insisting on confrontation rather than consolation.
