[ED: Buch], [PU: Hatje Cantz Verlag], Neuware - Ben Willikens became known for his paintings of vacant spaces where time seems to stand still. For a long time gray dominated his palette, and his subtle orchestration of light and perspective attracted both beholders and interpreters who found a 'theater of absence' in his work.Yet Willikens's oeuvre is more extensive and multifaceted than previous catalogues from his many exhibitions have led to believe. Now, this comprehensive overview is the first to present the entire range of his oeuvre.In more than 250 pictures, from his drawings of the 1960s to the Anstaltsbilder (institution paintings) and his Abendmahl (Last Supper) of the 1970s, the Gegenräume (counter spaces)  and ORTE (SITES) to the ceiling painting known as the Leipziger Firmament (2014), this survey recapitulates an artistic development in which car paint, watercolors, drawings, photography, gouaches, collages, acrylic paint, and silkscreens have played a role-and for the last decade also the entire range of colors.

[EAN: 9783775742955], Neubuch, [PU: Hatje Cantz Verlag Jan 2018], KUNST, MALEREI, SYMBOLISMUS, Neuware -Ben Willikens ist mit Gemälden menschenleerer Räume bekannt geworden, in denen die Zeit stillzustehen scheint. Lange beherrschte Grau die Palette, und die subtile Lichtregie der Tiefenperspektive zog Betrachter wie Interpreten an, die hier ein »Theater der Abwesenheit« vorfanden.Doch Willikens' OEuvre ist umfangreicher und vielfältiger, als es die Kataloge der zahlreichen Ausstellungen bisher erkennen ließen - die vorliegende Werkübersicht führt daher erstmals seine ganze Breite vor Augen.Von den Zeichnungen der 1960er-Jahre, den Anstaltsbildern und Abendmahl-Gemälden der 1970er-Jahren über die Gegenräume und ORTE bis hin zum Deckenbild Leipziger Firmament von 2014 rekapituliert diese Werkübersicht in mehr als 250 Abbildungen eine künstlerische Entwicklung, in der Autolacke und Aquarelle, Zeichnungen und Fotografien, Gouachen und Collagen, Acrylfarben und Siebdrucke eine Rolle spielen - undseit gut zehn Jahren auch alle Farben. 352 pp. Englisch, Books<
