Lot Essay
Robert Michel belonged to a Weimar circle of young artists, who had grouped around Johannes Molzahn just after the First World War, in search for a new expressionist art.
Michel was even more fascinated by technical constructions and machines than Molzahn. He was deeply influenced by the works of the Futurists he had seen at Herwarth Walden's Galerie der Sturm in Berlin and used their ideas of the moving image in a technically dominated world in his own compositions.
