Item Number: 136780 Title: RICHARD LINDNER : Großstadtzirkus : Big-City Circus : Le cirque de la grande ville Author: Levy, Thomas (ed) Price: Not Available ISBN: 9783735600813 Description: Bielefeld: Kerber, 2015. 23cm., hardcover, 120pp. illus. Multi-lingual text. Exhibition held at Kestner Pro Arte, Hannover. Summary: The painter Richard Lindner introduces his shadow figures of big-city life as if under a big top: thieves, prostitutes or gamblers as protagonists on the margins of society. With his unmistakeable imagery, Lindner has become one of the most important pioneers of Pop Art. The fifty or so oil paintings, watercolours and drawings in this catalogue provide an insight into his different creative phases from the 1950s to the 1970s. In cooperation with the estate of the artist, the catalogue gathers together numerous preliminary studies of Lindner’s paintings that have never before been shown in public and which demonstrate the erstwhile illustrator’s meticulous conquest of the image’s surface. We regret to inform you that this title is no longer available. P.O. Box 3904, Kingston, New York 12402 US Phone: 845-331-8519 Fax: 845-331-0852 Email: michael@artbooks.com |
