Description
A monograph on Amelie von Wulffen has long been overdue. For more than twenty years, the artist has been developing an oeuvre that is quite diverse in formal and stylistic terms (collages, installations, animation films, drawings, sculptures, and paintings), yet possesses a thematic consistency that is revealed in this publication. While her motifs appear to be private and personal, they manifest the problematic coming to terms with the repercussions of German (cultural) history, making her an insistent chronicler of suppression. The acid humor permeating her works spares no humanly possible abysses and is most obvious and direct in her drawings and comics. The texts of this richly illustrated monograph explore Wulffen's contribution to the discourse on painting as well as psychoanalytical aspects, and present the painter as a role model for a younger generation of artists.00Exhibition: Pinakothek der Moderne, Munich, Germany (23.10.2015-21.02.2016) / Studio Voltaire, London, UK (10.02.-02.04.2017).
Description
This is an anthology of the artist?s collected comics from 2011 to 2020, only allegedly a casual branch of her practice. It includes November (2011) and At the cool table (2013) as well as lesser known, shorter comics of the last few years. Von Wulffens comics address the social codes of the art world, the daily life of being a female artist, and nightmare-like, surreal psychogeographies. They poignantly and parodically observe fears of failure, loneliness, competition, so-called good taste, and sexual affairs, while questioning a clear cut distinction between high and low, artistic genius and amateurism.00Exhibition: KW Institute for Contemporary Art, Berlin, Germany (28.11.2020 - 14.02.2021).
