The painting masterpiece "Drowning" shows a destruction scenario which has settled in urban space. The ironic title "drowning" refers to the rescue ring located in the lower left corner. The title suggests that there is some drowning in the foaming spray at the lower edge of the picture, but since it can´t be found, it is either already submerged or cut off from the edge of the picture. The instrument for rescue is ready on the shore, but the runner of the rescue ring is missing. The rescue is therefore as close as remote, a highly paradoxical situation. In view of the extent of the destruction the question arises, if the rescue worthiness of the drowning might be of higher purpose request than the surrounding scenery which seems to be determined of a much higher level of intervention necessity. Ertrinkender (deutsche Übersetzung) Das Bild „Ertrinkender“ zeigt ein in urbanem Stadtraum angesiedeltes Zerstörungsszenario. Der ironische Titel „Ertrinkender“ verweist auf den in der unteren linken Ecke angesiedelten Rettungsring. Der Titel suggeriert, dass sich in der aufschäumenden Gischt am unteren Bildrand irgendwo ein Ertrinkender befindet, der aber, da er nicht aufzufinden ist, entweder schon abgetaucht ist oder von der Bildkante abgeschnitten wird. Das Instrument zur Rettung hängt am Ufer bereit, doch der Ausführende Werfer des Rettungsrings fehlt. Die Rettung ist also genauso nah wie fern, eine höchst paradoxe Situation. In Anbetracht des Ausmaßes der Zerstörung außen rum stellt sich die Frage nach der Gewichtung des Ereignisses einer ertrinkenden Person – ist nicht alles um den Ertrinkenden herum von viel größerer Rettungswürdigkeit und Notwendigkeit des Eingreifens bestimmt?
