Continuing Albert Oehlen’s interest in posters, this volume contains loose, unbound images of ten paintings contained within a large fold-out poster set designed by the artist.

Closely associated with the Cologne art scene and the Neue Wilde movement, Oehlen was also formally a member of the Lord Jim Lodge along with Martin Kippenberger, among others.

The artist’s latest series of paintings vividly merge image, text and symbol in an explosive form that Oehlen has called ‘free collage’. Combining oil, inkjet print collage and spraypaint on canvas, Oehlen’s paintings are characterised by dirty smears at their centre; reflecting the artist’s ability to interrogate the possibilities of painting and challenge the viewer’s reading of visual language.

About the Author

Albert Oehlen is a contemporary German artist. His art concentrates on painting, installations and music. Closely associated with the Cologne art scene along with Martin Kippenberger among others, his work is related to the "Neue Wilde" movement. Oehlen comes to painting and art media out of the 70s interest in democratizing high art which allows him to view painting for example, as he says, "with a certain disdain, or at least a lack of respect. So I can romp around in it. And now that I'm having fun with it, I can take its postulates very seriously." Hans Werner Holzwarth started as a photographer and communication designer, then co-led his own company for corporate design. Since 1992, Holzwarth has focused on book design, collaborating with Larry Clark, Robert Frank, Nan Goldin, Boris Mikhailov, Issey Miyake, Albert Oehlen, Richard Prince, Ed Ruscha, Kiki Smith, Juergen Teller, Jeff Wall, John Waters, Christopher Wool, and many others. His titles for TASCHEN include Taschen Collection, Martin Kippenberger, Jeff Koons, and Christopher Wool.
