NIKLAUS STOECKLIN (1896-1982) BINACA / ZAHNPASTE. 1941. 50x35 inches, 127x89 cm. Wolfsberg, Zürich. Condition A-: minor repaired tears at edges; some into image; minor creases and abrasions at edges. Framed. After designing images in a geometric Art Deco style (Gaba, 1927) and toying with surrealism (PKZ, 1934), Stoecklin turned towards the Objekt Plakat, or the New Objectivity. In this style, not only were products rendered in a hyperrealistic manner, without abstraction or interpretation, but lithographic techniques were also used at an elevated and precise level, allowing for clearer, crisper printing than ever before. Stoecklin was clearly a master of this form (inaugurating the style with this and another image for Meta briquettes). This is the German version.
