Was ist das (Piece No.2)
Rare Edition by conceptual artist artist Arthur Köpcke (1928-1977) who was one of the most relevant German Fluxus artists. Köpcke’s Piece No. 2 is a very complex fusion of music, poetry, and visual art.

Between 1963 and 1965, the key work reading/work-pieces-manuscript emerged, marking a turning point in Köpcke’s oeuvre. While …
Materialien Zur Postmoderne In Bild Und Ton
"Claus Bohmler works with the media. Since they seem to function so well, he takes them apart, examines them, and then, perhaps, assembles them anew.

This unique release is the opus magnum of Wyschnegradsky, containing th…

Pictures of Pictures from Pictures of Pictures (1975-1979)
Rare and long out of print LP...This album, featuring solo piano compositions, was released in 1983. The work draws inspiration from Modest Moussorgsky's 1874 composition "Pictures at an Exhibition," which was based on ten etchings. Klaus Peter Brehmer reissued these etchings, while Philip Corner contributed his own interpretation. The repetitive melodies and rhythms reflect Russian folklore and minimalism, while the spatial arrangement resembles Japanese interiors. The succession of images in p…
