  About the Artwork  

This work, an open black hand with striking colors and patterns, influences the observer with the seductive rhythms of the Brasilian Bossa Nova. An extraordinary post that looks like a photo of a sculpture with bright swirls suggesting the excitements of Carnival in Rio, Kieser has produced one of his most gorgeous designs shown in the form of this rare, large sized poster.
