This comprehensive retrospective has been designed in conjunction with the Fundacio Antoni Tapies in Barcelona and will be shown in Barcelona and Cologne and also in the Centre National de la Photographie in Paris and at the Fotomuseum Winterthur. There will be an additional work in the presentation at the Museum Ludwig which has been specially created for this exhibition venue and which deals with the importance of photographic images in prisons.
The Düsseldorf artist and pioneer of ''appropriation art'', Hans-Peter
Feldmann, has been working since the end of the 60s with materials such as
private or published photographs, toys or kitsch art which the artist
appropriated in quite different ways. Removed from their original context, the
pictures or objects are modified, arranged, presented and displayed in such a
way that they appear in a new light. The fascination inherent in the motifs
and objects is thus rekindled. This comprehensive retrospective has been
designed in conjunction with the Fundacio Antoni Tapies in Barcelona and will
be shown in Barcelona and Cologne and also in the Centre National de la
Photographie in Paris and at the Fotomuseum Winterthur. There will be an
additional work in the presentation at the Museum Ludwig which has been
specially created for this exhibition venue and which deals with the
importance of photographic images in prisons (catalogue, poster).
