Guy Mees
Published by Galerie Micheline Szwajcer, Antwerp, 1988, unpaginated (colour & b/w ill.), 23 × 24 cm, English
Price: €55

Guy Mees’s (1935–2003) photographs, videos, and above all his fragile works on paper are characterised by a formal rigour combined with sensitivity and delicacy. The uniqueness of his oeuvre lies precisely in its avoidance of conventional aesthetics and discursive classifications. A leading figure of the Belgian avant-garde, Mees left behind an outstanding body of work that transgresses geometric abstraction, Minimalism, Conceptualism, and applied art.

Sherrie Levine
Published by Galerie Nachst St Stephan, Vienna & Rosemarie Schwarzwalder, 1988, 88 pp. (colour & b/w ill.), 14.2 × 19 cm, English/German
Price: €42 (Out of stock)

Produced on the occasion of the exhibition Sherrie Levine at Galerie Nachst St Stephan, Vienna in May, 1988.

Sherrie Levine’s work engages many of the core tenets of postmodern art, in particular challenging notions of originality, authenticity, and identity. Since she rose to prominence as a member of the Pictures Generation of artists in the late 1970s and 1980s, Levine has created a singular and complex body of work in a variety of media that often explicitly reproduces artworks and motifs from the Western art-historical canon as well as non-Western cultures.
