John M Armleder too much is not enough

As early as 1975, John Armleder was serving tea – as a contribution to the Biennale de Paris. Much of what has been dealt with in recent years at the interfaces between art and services, between Pop Art and high culture, is found embryonically in a wide variety of forms in the works of this artist, born in Geneva in 1948, who has consistently developed his oeuvre for more than thirty years. In the course of the last three decades, his works, whose argumentation is always cryptically understated and unseriously serious, have become an unmistakable and constantly self-reinventing oeuvre in which kitsch and eclecticism, B movies and trash mix with high added value. This publication documents the first comprehensive presentation of Armleder's oeuvre at the Kunstverein Hannover since the great retrospective in the Kunsthalle Baden-Baden. Armleder thereby presents a sequence that clearly displays the multi-dimensionality and range of his concept of the work, based on space-related works he developed himself.
