Christian Hellmich: Tivoli (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9783735609250)

Inspired by the current mediatized age, Hellmich's shrouded references to popular culture encode layers of meaning into his paintings

German painter Christian Hellmich (born 1977) creates works characterized by gestural abstraction and the asymmetrical arrangement of color planes. The fragments of motifs that Hellmich assembles are taken from his extensive image archive of photographs, magazine cuttings, internet sources, postcards and more.
