Tree slice, nailed (wood, glue, ash, nails, black paint) and charcoal drawing on double sheet - Signed and numbered // Günther Uecker’s Baum. Kunstpranger (1984) is a compelling mixed media sculpture that combines natural elements with industrial materials, showcasing Uecker's signature use of nails. The artwork features a slice of tree embedded with nails in an abstract arrangement, symbolizing the tension between nature and human intervention. The rough texture of the wood and ash contrasts with the sharp, metallic nails, creating a tactile and visually dynamic piece. Accompanied by a charcoal drawing on a double sheet, the work evokes themes of destruction, creation, and transformation. Uecker’s use of nails, often seen as a metaphor for pain or human impact on the environment, invites viewers to reflect on the fragility of nature and the consequences of human actions.

What is Found Object?
A found object is a term used to describe a man-made or natural object, or a fragment of one, that an artist discovers or purchases and keeps for inspiration or as a work of art. The artist may also modify the object or incorporate it into a collage or assemblage, transforming it into a new piece of art.
