What is G3I8#CB about?

G3I8#CB is a portrait-format abstract oil painting (180 × 150 cm) created in 2023 by Claus Bertermann. The portrait orientation — height exceeding width — gives the work an upward register that the eye reads as ascent or stack rather than expanse, a structural difference that conditions everything inside the field. The composition is built around horizontal stratification — long palette-knife passes that divide the canvas into stacked bands. The upper register holds dark teal striped with white and pink scrapes where the knife has cut down to brighter underpainting. A thick dark central band of near-black and burgundy carries a small bloom of yellow and orange in its midst, like fire seen through smoke. The lower portion opens into chartreuse and pale green with thin black drags through it. The whole composition reads almost as a vertical section through atmospheres — a stack of weathers compressed into a single picture. The alphanumeric title (G3I8#CB) is Bertermann's serial notation for his abstract works. The code refuses any commitment to subject; even where the structural reading suggests atmospheric stratification, the painting is not about weather or sky. It is about the material event of horizontal pigment-bands compressed into a vertical field. G3I8#CB belongs to a 2023 cycle in which Bertermann let portrait-format works behave like compressed vertical sections — narrow worlds in which several chromatic systems are stacked under their own weight.
