Presseschau 3
Presseschau 3 seems to depict, in grey tones (that is,
black and white), a scene from a station of New York's elevated railway.
The passengers are busy entering or leaving the station.
An added element, in light brown and blue, has been printed above the black
and white image of the station. This colored element crosses again the
bottom margin of the black and white print. Its addition is meaningful.
It represents two female "persons" in the foreground
who are flanking a "man", in fact, a skeleton. Apparently, the two
are busy stabilizing it in vertical positon, between them, just like two
buddies would attempt to stabilize a drunken friend while trying to accompany
him on his way home. The skeleton confronts the people in the station which
all three of them seem ready to enter. The accompanying "women", to the
left and right of the figure that is symbolizing DEATH, turn their heads,
looking back at us - the audience.
