Peter Fischli
Published by Verlag der Buchhandlung Walther König, Köln, 2022, 52 pages (colour & b/w ill.), 24.7 × 26.8 cm, German
Price: €18

This publication is released in conjunction with Peter Fischli’s exhibition 12 Arbeiten ohne Titel at Galerie Buchholz Cologne. It presents collages based on photographs taken throughout Zurich. For the past three years, the artist has documented peculiar “remnants of nocturnal revelry”: cars, park benches, and building façades sprayed with shaving foam—easily removable vandalistic interventions into the urban fabric, gestures of infinitesimal subversion. The foam figments are formless, lacking both definite shape and durable substance.

*Please note this publication is secondhand and has some traces of previous ownership.
