What is 44B9#CB about?

44B9#CB is an abstract oil painting (150 × 130 cm) created in 2024 by Claus Bertermann. It is a painting that rewards two different kinds of looking — a quality built into the production method and constitutive of how all Bertermann's sedimentary abstracts function in a room. At viewing distance — five meters, ten meters — 44B9#CB presents a unified chromatic field with implied directional movement. The palette knife passages read as compositional elements, establishing rhythm and emphasis across the surface. The overall color temperature and tonal structure resolve at this distance into a coherent visual experience. At close range — within arm's reach of the surface — the painting becomes something else: a topography. The thickness of accumulated layers, the precise edge where one palette knife pass ended and another began, the texture of different drying states, the micro-detail of brush application under the scraped zones — all of this becomes legible in a way that is invisible from a distance. The viewer at close range is reading the painting's history, not just perceiving its present state. This dual availability — the painting as field, and the painting as record — is a structural feature of Bertermann's sedimentary method, not an accidental quality. He builds the close-range complexity into the work through the accumulation process; the distance view is organized through the palette knife interventions that unify the surface. 44B9#CB demonstrates this logic in the 150 × 130 cm horizontal format.

Is 44B9#CB AI-generated?

No. 44B9#CB is a hand-painted original created entirely by Claus Bertermann — Oil on canvas. All works by Claus Bertermann are made by hand. In a time when AI-generated imagery is increasingly common, every Bertermann painting is a unique physical object, never digitally produced.
