Drawings 1966-2018","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAn unconventional retrospective-cum-artist's book revealing the little-seen drawings of a world-renowned photographer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWalter Pfeiffer is now a world-renowned photographer. Although he began his artistic career as a draftsman, Pfeiffer's drawings are known to precious few. So this book is an overdue overview of his graphic work, continually engaged in a fertile dialogue with his photographic work. In the early 1970s Pfeiffer produced large-scale hyper-realistic pencil drawings that served as points of departure and even working models for his photographs. This style gave rise to personal works as well as Pfeiffer's legendary posters for the Z?ich Filmpodium, magazine illustrations and commissioned portraits. Beginning in the 1980s and especially in the '90s, Pfeiffer gave up photography for a time to focus on drawings in China ink, colored pencils and watercolors, in which the elegant free play of lines and colors moves into the foreground: intimate portraits of beautiful boys and the artist's close women friends, still lifes and flowers. These pictures are characterized by a cheerful, wakeful sensuality, sure lines and alternation between graphic reduction and a taste for rich ornamentation. This publication is not a conventional retrospective, but a stand-alone artist's book in which to discover the vivacity of his drawings and a new Walter Pfeiffer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Walter Pfeiffer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 390680349X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783906803494\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Patrick Frey Edition\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 492\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 6.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 12.80h x 9.50w x 2.00d","brand":"Walter Pfeiffer","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43940886282495,"sku":"9783906803494","price":80.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_ef3d3147-ec5c-44b9-9c68-ff12604921e8.jpg?v=1681449725","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/walter-pfeiffer-walter-pfeiffer-9783906803494","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
