This new monograph documents the art of Albert Oehlen, whose collage-based, politically challenging, and aesthetically provocative imagery gained him increasing international recognition over the past fifteen years--including, in the past several years, solo exhibitions at the Renaissance Society at the University of Chicago and the Nolan/Eckman Gallery in New York.

5.0 out of 5 stars
digital poster and card collages, and the gray paintings,
By A Customer
This review is from: Albert Oehlen: Inhaltsangabe (Summary of Contents/Sumario) (Paperback)
So this book is pretty big, probably around coffee table book size, and very shiny (and if you get it from the right people it comes in a pretty industrially cool looking cardstock dust jacket-like box) and has a few billion color reproductions of Oehlen's digital collages for exhibition posters and cards and some of his gray paintings (which are just about fantastic). There is of course an interesting big of writing in probably three languages that's hard to decode in the languages I know, English, and probably easier to understand if you know his native language, German. I have the feeling he translated the thing online or something. Anyway, it's a great book, probably better than you even think it's going to be.
