Book Synopsis Sigmar Polke, Alchimist by : Sigmar Polke
Download or read book Sigmar Polke, Alchimist written by Sigmar Polke. This book was released on 2001. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This modest catalogue provides an excellent introduction to and survey of the paintings of Sigmar Polke, one of the most significant artists of the last 50 years. Since the 1960s, Polke has been making paintings of a deeply ironic nature, works that make fun of the tropes that have dominated the world of modern art. As such, he has situated himself as something of a participant-critic in the dialogue concerning the relevance of painting in recent decades, and has made one of the strongest cases imaginable for its continuing relevance. With 50 color reproductions of important works from all periods of his career, as well as texts by the curators of both the Louisiana Museum in Denmark and the Astrup Fearnley Museum in Oslo, Norway, Sigmar Polke: Alchemist is a welcome addition to the Polke literature.

Book Synopsis Sigmar Polke: the Editions by : Julia Rust
Download or read book Sigmar Polke: the Editions written by Julia Rust. This book was released on 2017. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Editioned work held a special place within the oeuvre and working methods of Sigmar Polke (1941-2010): it represented both a way to conduct intensive variations on unique works, and also to transform identical prints into unique objects by altering the foreground, background, or layering. His editions--which comprise objects, books, folders, photography, photocopies, collages and prints--and his painting should therefore be understood as symbiotic. Polke's images are products of his world; they reveal the changing society of the postwar years. The banality of everyday life, the aspirations of the middle classes, national and international politics--all of this, Polke placed under a microscope and reconfigured. Featuring approximately 200 works from the collection Kunstraum am Limes, this catalog contains all of the artist's editions.
