Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The first detailed catalogue raisonn ever produced on self-taught German painter Memphis Schulze (19442008) includes a complete document of the artists work through 1993 plus extensive personal photographs of Schulze, his friends including Sigmar Polke and Achim Duchow, and the Dusseldorf art scene of which he was a part for two decades. Assembled by his sons Max and Philip together with writer Katrin Menne, this book is a tribute to an artist little known outside of Europe but deeply influential to many younger artists of his time. An unexpected addition is a complete list of Schulzes legendary LP collection of American and London rock music from 195588, shared with the German art community in those post war years. Essays by Polke specialists Petra Lange-Berndt and Dietmar Rbel elucidate the social and aesthetic relationships within that scene and the influence of America and American culture on the younger German generation.
