Publisher's Synopsis
Housed in a slipcase, this three-volume retrospective of the paintings of Urs Fischer (born 1973) offers the viewer an intimate look at every painting produced from the beginning of his career up to 2017.
Fischer's two-dimensional works elegantly encapsulate some of his greatest strengths: color, precision and juxtaposition. His inventive approach to painting capitalizes on the relationship between photography and painting in many works, exploring two-dimensional texture.
The images in this book are printed to scale relative to one another. Selected works are also printed 1:1, providing the reader with a detail view not available in any other context. This retrospective includes fresh documentation of early collage works, many of which have not been exhibited for years.
