Abstract
The article aims at contributing to the characterisation of the works or artistic imagery of Artur Lescher. It highlights the purity of its forms that results from non-compositional structures while integrating in its grammar elements of tension, both between materials in the same work and among the works in the gallery they are once arranged. It also associates this grammar to semantics, relating his works to the child's imagination, since some of its forms refer back to old toys, while in others refer to the idea of repetition, to the game itself. Given this array of constructive work that leads, however, to the allegory, the spectator is asked to unravel the puzzle image, in an attempt to quell the unrest that results from what is also familiar and strange to (Das Unheimliche). It is in this aspect that the power of negativity, social or political criticism of his art resides.
