Untitled (Space-Light Drawing on Sailcloth)

Oil crayon on sailcloth, 1976, with three dense vertical zones of dark marks alternating with pale columns of light across a single panoramic panel. Reproduced the following year in the NBK's catalogue, Berliner Künstler der Gegenwart, alongside Schauer's essay on Finke's crayon drawings, which reads this rhythm as space staged and withheld. Finke scaled the same structure to six metres months later for the Berlin Now diptych in New York.

Wide panoramic drawing on white sailcloth with three dark vertical blocks separated by pale columns of light.
