What is TDB2#CB about?

TDB2#CB is a square-format abstract oil painting (160 × 160 cm) completed in 2024 by Claus Bertermann. The work is a near-pair to TDB1#CB — same dimensions, same year, same family of red-dominant decisions, though the two are siblings rather than a diptych, each retaining its own structural identity. The composition reorganizes the TDB1 palette under a more horizontal logic. Saturated red and crimson still carry the body of the canvas, but here the dominant directional events are long horizontal palette-knife sweeps in violet, dark navy, and slate-grey that cross the surface from edge to edge. Shorter diagonal cool drags interrupt the horizontals at intervals. Pockets of yellow and pale-jade press through at the lower margins where the knife has cut to brighter underpainting; magenta drips descend at the lower edge. The alphanumeric title (TDB2#CB) is Bertermann's serial notation for his abstract works. The proximity to TDB1#CB in the archive marks the two as siblings in a 2024 sub-cycle. TDB2#CB belongs to a 2024 cycle in which Bertermann let sibling works share a chromatic palette while organizing it under opposing directional logics — diagonal cut in one, horizontal stratification in the other.

Is TDB2#CB AI-generated?
