What is 03NR#CB about?

03NR#CB is a landscape-format abstract oil painting (150 × 170 cm) created in 2024 by Claus Bertermann. The 150 × 170 cm proportions position the work at a register that crosses from intimate to architectural — large enough to surround the viewer's central vision, but contained enough that the entire surface can be read as a single chromatic event. The painting is governed by a vertical rhythm of palette-knife sweeps that twist across the field like architectural columns under stress. Deep crimsons and bruised burgundies dominate the central mass; against them, intense cyans and yellow-greens emerge from earlier layers, exposed where the knife has cut down through the accumulated surface. The upper register holds a pocket of cerulean — a near-sky — interrupted by a dark scarlet mass; the lower edge releases into a band of saturated yellow and orange that reads as light or burn. The alphanumeric title (03NR#CB) is Bertermann's serial notation for his abstract works. As elsewhere in the series, the code resists narrative anchoring: the work is not about a story or a place but about the material event of its own making. What survives the palette knife is what Bertermann calls "what the painting chose to keep" — the artist decides where to scrape, but the painting itself determines what is revealed beneath. 03NR#CB belongs to a 2024 cycle in which Bertermann pushed the chromatic intensity of his abstract practice further than in any preceding year.

Is 03NR#CB AI-generated?
