Mark Grotjahn: Circus Circus

Mark Grotjahn ranks among the best-known American painters of his generation. His heterogeneous oeuvre includes depictions of anthropomorphic plants and masks as well as colorful abstract compositions in oil or wax crayon. After 1997, he also produced numerous monochromes. Grotjahn's "Butterfly" and "Face" paintings are animated by a dynamic dialectic between gestural representation and formalist structure. This lavishly designed catalogue of Mark Grotjahn's first institutional solo exhibition in Germany features texts by Caroline Käding and Mark Prince and beautiful full-page color reproductions of paintings and sculptures.
