What is 9XNA#CB about?

9XNA#CB is a large square-format abstract oil painting (200 × 200 cm) created in 2023 by Claus Bertermann. The 200 × 200 cm dimensions place this among Bertermann's most monumental abstracts — a square at near-architectural scale, large enough that the viewer's peripheral vision is fully occupied at standing distance. The palette is among the most chromatically aggressive in Bertermann's 2023 output. Hot magenta and rose dominate the upper register and right side; emerald and forest-green diagonal sweeps cut across the warm body as structural counter-marks; a central pocket of amber and golden-yellow holds the painting's chromatic heart, where the knife has cut down through several cured layers to the warmest exposed strata. Crimson and vermilion press through at the right edge. The composition reads almost botanical — a near-floral radiation — though the serial title forbids any commitment to subject. The alphanumeric title (9XNA#CB) is Bertermann's serial notation for his abstract works. At 200 × 200 cm the serial code takes on additional weight: the painting refuses subject even at the scale where subject-painting traditionally asserts itself. 9XNA#CB belongs to a 2023 cycle in which Bertermann pushed his sedimentary practice to monumental scale, testing whether the method could sustain its intimate gestural register at twice the standard working area.

Is 9XNA#CB AI-generated?

No. 9XNA#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.
