About the Edition

The collage Skins by Ines Doujak, produced by the art magazine springerin, draws on original charts and a medical atlas from early twentieth century. Human body parts are intertwined with views of plants and animals in a way that creates intermediate beings that cannot be assigned to any single species. Accompanying the edition is the artist’s book Loomshuttler, Warpaths by Ines Doujak and John Barker, which was produced in cooperation between the Lentos Kunstmuseum Linz and the Württembergischer Kunstverein. This is a long-standing project that explores, in different formats, the entanglements between textiles, fashion, colonialism, violence, and globalized production relations. In 2016, Ines Doujak was represented at the Württembergischer Kunstverein with the solo exhibition Not Dressed for Conquering, which was based on this project. In the context of the exhibition, eight individually designed booklets were also created, and they accompany this edition as well.  

Proceeds from the sale will go to the Austrian art magazine springerin to support critical art journalism.

NOH Suntag

(born 1971 in Seoul, South Korea)

State of Emergency #25, 2008
Pigment fine art print on photographic paper, image: 33.3 x 50 cm, sheet: 42 x 59.4 cm, signed
Edition: 20
Price: 400.- euros plus VAT

About the Edition
NOH Suntag is one of the most advanced photographic artists in South Korea. His works have attracted a great deal of attention in recent years. The photograph in this edition is from the series State of Emergency, which explores the conflicts caused by the US military presence in South Korea. Specifically, the photograph refers to riots between demonstrators and police in Daechu-ri, where a US military base was to be expanded. “The impression of the unreal in these extreme scenes, which take place in broad daylight and are neither rationally explainable nor comprehensible, immediately overlaps with images from spectacular war films, romantic dramas, or religious paintings” (NOH Suntag).

Dan Perjovschi

(born 1961 in Sibiu, Romania)

Trash, 2008

Drawing, 21 x 29.7 cm, signed, dated, numbered, and titled
Edition: 15
Price: 500.- euros plus VAT

About the Edition
With sharp irony, Dan Perjovschi comments on the absurdity and cynicism of the “brave new world” in his drawings, which are created daily with just a few strokes of the pen. Current topics from the world news are pointed out, as are general social phenomena or things that affect the artist personally. The figures in Perjovschi’s micro- or macro-worlds confront the pressures of the global whole sometimes helplessly, sometimes with tragicomic hubris, sometimes with a blatant lust for power or petty opportunism. Perjovschi expansively populates the walls of exhibition institutions with his figures and scenarios. He produces newspapers and artists’ books, as well as inserts for magazines and publications.

Stan Douglas

(born 1960 in Vancouver, Canada)

Courtroom, 2007

C-print, laminated on aluminum, 90 x 100 cm, framed and signed
Edition: 7
Price: 9,700.- euros plus VAT

About the Edition

Stan Douglas, a three-time participant at documenta in Kassel, showed his first comprehensive solo exhibition worldwide, Past Imperfect – Works 1986–2007, at the Württembergischer Kunstverein in cooperation with the Staatsgalerie Stuttgart in 2007. The photograph Courtroom shows the eighteenth-century anatomical theater of the Université René Descartes in Paris, which served as one of the locations for the film Vidéo. The Justitia in the picture, with a bloody tear flowing out from under her blindfold, was a prop. The video installation makes equal reference to Samuel Beckett’s Film, Franz Kafka’s novel The Trial, and its film adaptation by Orson Welles.
In 2022, Stan Douglas will represent Canada at the Venice Biennale.

Anna Oppermann

(born 1940 in Eutin, Germany, died 1993 in Celle, Germany)

Being different (“Somehow she is so different...”) – Portrait A. O., 1980

Black-and-white photograph on baryta paper (hand print), 60.5 x 51 cm,
certificate stamp of the estate of Anna Oppermann
Edition: 10
Price: 1,800.- euro plus VAT

About the Edition
This edition is a special photo excerpt from the ensemble Anders Sein (“Somehow she is so different...”). In Anders Sein, Anna Oppermann circles around her own fears as an outsider in art and society. Oppermann created the edition of ten hand prints offered here in 1985.
In 2007, the Württembergischer Kunstverein presented the world’s first comprehensive solo exhibition of the artist’s work after her death, which resulted in many national and international exhibitions, as well as public acquisitions that secured Oppermann’s work.

Claudia and Julia Müller

(born 1964 / 1965 in Basel, Swiss)

Lists (Boat Trip), 2004

Silkscreen (12-color, on Modigliani paper, 320 gm²), 60 x 45 cm, signed and numbered
Edition: 50
Price: 100.- euros plus VAT

About the Edition
The two Swiss sisters Claudia and Julia Müller create compositions that draw on everyday images within their works. They are searching for the subversive in the seemingly trivial. Through the working process of reproducing, copying, and tracing, the shopping lists, reminders, packing lists, and noted inventories lose their banality. Regardless of their abstractness and anonymity, they become portraits in which personal, human qualities shine through handwritten features, deletions, ink blots, and other meticulously copied mistakes. Listen (Schiffreise) contains the enumeration of things to be taken on a ship by a “lyrical I.” In 2004, the Württembergischer Kunstverein presented Human Territories, the first comprehensive solo exhibition of the two artists in Germany.

John Hilliard

© VG Bild-Kunst, Bonn 2020

(born 1945 in Lancaster, Great Britain)

Illumination, 2000

Iris print, image: 35.3 x 30.5 cm, sheet: 50 x 40 cm, signed, dated, numbered, and titled
Edition: 24 + 6
Price: 700.- euros plus VAT

About the Edition

John Hilliard was represented with a comprehensive retrospective at the Württembergischer Kunstverein in 1999. He is considered one of the most important representatives of conceptual photography. His pictures are a play of enigmatic montages that leave horizons of meaning largely open — in terms of both form and content. Illumination is the result of his working method in the 1990s, moving the action to the periphery while barricading or even eliminating the center of the image. The white space in the center can thus operate as a formal intervention, but also as a blind spot in the middle of an untold plot.

Exhibitions (Selection)

Michael Craig-Martin

© VG Bild-Kunst, Bonn 2020

(born 1941 in Dublin, Ireland)

Painting, 1999

Silkscreen print, 5-color on cardboard, 38 x 45 cm, signed, dated, and numbered on the reverse
Edition: 50
Price: 600.- euros plus VAT

About the Edition
Reduced to their clear outlines and presented in captivating colors, Michael Craig-Martin translates everyday objects onto the wall. A pair of scissors, a pipe, and a glass of water become information-aesthetic artistic objects. His approach is taken to the extreme in painting: What is the picture here and what is the frame?
In 1999, his works were shown as part of the solo exhibition And sometimes a cigar is just a cigar at the Württembergischer Kunstverein. Craig-Martin is one of the main representatives of British conceptual art. In 2016, he was awarded a knighthood by Queen Elizabeth for his artistic achievements.

Stephen Craig

(born 1960 in Larne, Northern Ireland)

The Two Cities, 1999

Silkscreen print, 75 x 105 cm, signed, dated, and numbered
Edition: 20 + 5
Price: 350.- euros plus VAT

About the Edition

Stephen Craig’s solo exhibition The Two Cities and the Phantasy Apparatus was held at the Württembergischer Kunstverein in 1999. Based on the plan to transform Ambrogio Lorenzetti’s large fresco The City under the Good and the Bad Government, located in Sienna’s City Palace, into an architectural fantasy, the work was created that Craig was able to realize for the first time at the Württembergischer Kunstverein. Two Cities is the result of Stephen Craig’s many years of investigation into the past and present of architecture. The same applies to the silkscreen, which appeared as an edition and was conceived as a two-dimensional counterpart to the gridded cities that formed the core of his sculptural work as City 1 and City 2. Numerous allusions can be found in it — from Vitruvius’ ideas of an ideal city to Giorgio and Filarete to the utopias of a future megapolis, such as those hinted at in the organized chaos of metropolises like Los Angeles.

Lithograph, approx. 30 x 40 cm, signed and dated
Edition: 100
Price: 150.- euros plus VAT

About the Edition
Paul Flora was one of Austria’s best-known caricaturists. With provocative sharpness and irony, he captured the political world of his time in fine strokes on paper. He worked for newspapers such as Die Zeit or The Observer and produced his own texts in addition to his artistic works. In Glurns in South Tyrol, the Paul Flora Museum commemorates him. The city of Venice and the carnival were a recurring motif in his caricatures. The lithograph Carnevale Veneziano from 1982 has a special topicality in the year 2020.

Edition: 100
Price: 100.- euros plus VAT

Free Trade Wharf, 1972

Silkscreen print, 6-color, 69.5 x 104.5 cm, signed and numbered
Edition: 150
Price: 100.- euros plus VAT

About the Edition

Gerd Winner became known for his large-format silkscreen works, which he has presented in public spaces. Not only the city as the exhibition venue itself, but also the motivic confrontation with urban cultures characterize his working method. In addition to metropolises such as Berlin or New York, it was and still is London in particular or, in the meantime, Paris, which has left a mark on his work.
