Behind The Buddha’s Mask
Lucky restock ** Limited edition of 60.

Agnes Martin
2024 stock  Gorgeously quiet in color and composition, Agnes Martin's paintings have a distinctive grace that sets them apart from those of the Abstract Expressionists of her day and the Minimalist artists she inspired. Martin attributed her grid-based works to metaphysical motivations, lending a serene complexity to her oeuvre that has defied any easy categorization. Perhaps for this reason, critical and scholarly analysis of her paintings has been scarce-until now. This important new anthology…
Advertisements 1971/1972 (Book)
2024 stock Actionist, maker of objects, writer and graphic artist Dieter Roth created an exceptionally diverse and convoluted oeuvre. In Lucerne he published a series of small ads twice weekly in the newspaper «Anzeiger Stadt Luzern und Umgebung», consisting of an aphorism and signed by his initials. Embedded in advertisements from «real» life, these ads conjured the surreal, subversive side of existence as in statements like «A good beginning is an evil end», «A tear is as evil as a good word» …
Tears In Lucerne (Book)

24 Pictures At An Exhibition
Long out of print, very few copies available: the sound installation “24 Pictures at an Exhibition” has resulted in three different pieces. The first one comes close to the installation as presented in the museum – the technical term “oil on canvas/olja på duk” being one of the mostly repeated; the other two take us further from the original work without leaving the basis, i.e. the art collection of Ystad Art Museum. The paintings and the informative texts returned to their places in the rooms o…
