He designed hybrid objects and environments, assemblages, text-based works and performances that attempted to circumvent state repression. Among his acclaimed bodies of work are the \u003ci\u003eAltar\u003c\/i\u003e assemblages of the mid-1960s and the \u003ci\u003eBomb\u003c\/i\u003e series. Having fled to West Germany in 1981, Filko exhibited at Documenta 7 in Kassel in 1982, and then relocated to New York, where he took up neo-expressionist painting, embracing a rainbow-colored chakra system that he explored for the rest of his life.\u003cbr\u003eThis first English-language publication on Filko approaches his multilayered oeuvre from various perspectives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stano Filko\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3775753419\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783775753418\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Hatje Cantz\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/04\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.43lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.94h x 8.35w x 0.79d","brand":"Stano Filko","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44080763896063,"sku":"9783775753418","price":55.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_33edf6bb-8932-4594-a816-f51f030d748e.jpg?v=1685488677","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/stano-filko-stano-filko-9783775753418","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
