Imi Knoebel’s Kinderstern (1989) features a bold red star centered on a white field, a minimalist yet deeply symbolic motif that has become one of the artist’s most recognizable works. Conceived as part of Knoebel’s ongoing exploration of color, form, and reduction, the Kinderstern embodies his Bauhaus-inspired precision and humanitarian spirit. The star motif also serves as an emblem for Kinderstern e.V., a charitable initiative supporting children in need, linking Knoebel’s formal abstraction to social engagement.
