Günther Uecker (1930 - 2024) was a seminal German artist associated with the ZERO movement. He gained international recognition for his signature nail reliefs and his meditative, monochromatic compositions. Ueckers works challenge the boundaries between painting and sculpture, light and shadow, presence and absence. His art is held in major collections, including MoMA New York, the Tate Modern in London, and the Centre Pompidou in Paris.
