Neo Rauch
This intimate volume contains three hundred extraordinary drawings, many never before seen, from one of the most exciting artists to emerge from Europe in the past decade.
Neo Rauch traverses many boundaries in his surrealist and realist; comic and serious; dreamlike and journalistic. Rather than condensing his work into one genre or framework, Rauch combines iconographic and visual elements from diverse comic strips, advertising, film, architecture, design, German culture, art history and history, in general. This specially designed volume presents Rauch's drawings, which reflect the archetypal and mythical nature of his work. An interview with the artist and an introductory essay by Wolfgang Buscher provide depth and background to these selected works that hail from every period of Rauch's career.
