The trained blacksmith and studied sculptor was a grandiose artist: he made light and even air the subject of his work and liberated non-objective sculpture a little further from its statics. Out of the spirit of constructivism, he dissolved the surface of his sculptures and reliefs made of steel and fibreglass into images perceived as moving. His reference to sometimes scenic, sometimes mythical inspirations and his implementation of sounds and music contrasting both abstract and concrete art with his own pictorial language, was completely unique. The Tony-Cragg-&#8220;Meistersch\u00fcler&#8221; Axel Anklam was, however, not only an artist with such diverse potentials and great plans, but he was also a friend, the best anyone could wish for &#8211; smart, always present, always lovable, always open to ideas. His art is now his legacy, but his loss is immeasurable. As his gallerists, we mourn the loss of Axel Anklam. Our thoughts are with his wife and children.<\/p>\n<p>Gallery C &#038; K Gallery, Berlin<br \/>\nGallery Anja Knoess, Cologne<br \/>\nGallery Rother, Wiesbaden<br \/>\nGallery Schlichtenmaier, Grafenau and Stuttgart<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_11420\" style=\"width: 510px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11420\" src=\"https:\/\/cundkgalerie.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Ausstellungsansicht_Axel_500px.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11421\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cundkgalerie.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Ausstellungsansicht_Axel_500px.jpg 500w, https:\/\/cundkgalerie.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Ausstellungsansicht_Axel_500px-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-11420\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Axel Anklam, Installationsansicht\/Installation View Format (2017)\u00a0C&#038;K Galerie, Berlin<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AXEL ANKLAM 1971 &#8211; 2022 Axel Anklam, who died on January 1, 2022 at the age of only 50 after&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11426","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cundkgalerie.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11426","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cundkgalerie.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cundkgalerie.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cundkgalerie.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cundkgalerie.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11426"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/cundkgalerie.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11426\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11428,"href":"https:\/\/cundkgalerie.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11426\/revisions\/11428"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cundkgalerie.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11426"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cundkgalerie.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11426"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cundkgalerie.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11426"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
