Description
Strahlung auf Spirale (Spiral Radiation) exemplifies the abstraction found in Loew’s later work. A black circular form — reminiscent of a spacecraft or satellite — occupies the left-center of the composition and functions as its visual and conceptual anchor. From this dense core, spiral forms radiate outward, suggesting motion, energy, or trajectory. These emanating lines may be read as traces of the object’s passage through space, evoking themes of propulsion, radiation, and thereby indicating a visual culture shaped by technological advancements in space exploration in the 1960’s.
