The artwork, titled “Bunnies”, was created by Sigmar Polke in the year 1966. It is a piece that belongs to the “New European Painting” movement and falls under the figurative genre.
“Bunnies” presents a vibrant and somewhat whimsical depiction of four women dressed in bunny costumes. The women stand closely together in what appears to be a staged pose, likely suggestive of a performance setting such as a cabaret or nightclub. The artist employs a pointillism technique, characterized by the use of distinct dots of color that collectively form the image. This method creates a textured and somewhat pixelated effect, which is both striking and reminiscent of early printing processes. The bright and varied color palette, along with the playful subject matter, imbues the artwork with a sense of liveliness and dynamic energy.
