Alfred Hofkunst transcended all boundaries and was not least for that reason a close friend of Jean Tinguely and Bernhard Luginbühl. "The prince of draftsmen," steamroller printer and garbage-sack-world-conqueror unfolds his work here on 10 huge sheets that one can study for hours, or frame and hang on the wall. A weighty, beautiful excess. This publication provides an overview of the career of this artist, who was born in 1942 and died in 2004. Hofkunst first came to the attention of the public in the mid-1960s with trompe-l'oeil depictions of everyday objects on a scale of 1:1; a high point in his career was the "reconstruction" of his studio in the form of drawings at documenta VI in 1977. In addition to these well-known works, the folder also includes atmospheric landscapes and meticulously detailed figural pictures by the multifaceted artist.
