Hans Ulrich Obrist and Konrad Klapheck: The Conversation Series»rank: 2179613by: Hans Ulrich Obrist, Konrad Klapheck
: :In this German-language-only installment of Hans Ulrich Obrist's Conversation Series, the acclaimed curator-conversationalist speaks with the German Pop Surrealist painter Konrad Klapheck, and includes the German conceptual photographer Hans-Peter Feldmann--who was there to document the afternoon's activities with a series of photographic portraits--in the talk.

His machines are like primitive totems monumental, amusingly absurd and sexually suggestive.' This volume contains generous photo documentation, with many new paintings depicting offbeat human sexual encounters reproduced in color. |
