Wilhelm Sasnal Untitled Print, 2011
About the Item
Wilhelm Sasnal is one of the most celebrated artists to emerge from Eastern Europe in the twenty-first century. His practice embraces drawing, film, comics (his strips are regularly published in Machina and Przekroj, two Polish periodicals) and, above all, painting. Prolific, varied and deliberately unclassifiable, Sasnal channels the enigma of our contemporary image-based society. For him, ‘art is largely a mystery [that] touches upon the invisible, the unnamed.’
His painting draws together Pop, photorealism, abstraction, minimalism and photorealism to describe both banal and enchanted details of day-to-day reality, placing diverse subjects on a plane of equality. His key subjects, however, which he returns to again and again, are the possibilities and limits of representation. In his work, material and image swap places, crossing and recrossing the border between depiction and abstraction, often several times in a single canvas.
His work in every medium involves a process of absorbing, saturating, materializing and then moving on to the next subject. At any given moment he has a pile of images waiting in his studio and in his head. In his exhibitions, we catch excerpts or glimpses of the greater whole of his attempt to create an encyclopaedia of the visual world, a project in which no detail is insignificant.
His films show a similar range to his paintings, from their modest beginnings as unedited 8-millimetre shorts to the 35-millimetre feature film Fallout (2010). Seen as a whole, his practice raises fundamental and evergreen questions about the value of images and art, the nature and possibilities of painting and film, the intertwined relation of our subjectivity to cultural identity, and the ways we address what we experience in life in parallel to the mediated world of images.

This work is part of the Vera List Anniversary Print Portfolio, created in recognition of the exceptional legacy of philanthropist Vera List. It was the generosity of Vera and her husband Albert that enabled the founding of the Vera List Art Project at Lincoln Center in 1962, MIT's List Arts Center in 1982, and the Vera List Center for Art and Politics at The New School in 1992, among others. These institutions joined forces with Artspace and six internationally renowned artists to produce this print portfolio.
This print by Fred Wilson is comprised of a mashup of flags of Caribbean nations, presenting an idea about the relationships among the people of these cultures.
Fred Wilson is a conceptual artist of African-American and Caribbean descent who's primarily known for rearranging art and artifacts in museum collections to reveal the inherent racism and gender politics that are often overlooked.

Michael Bauer Baba Creme Limited Edition Print
By Phaidon
Located in New York, NY
Print
Full bleed six-color silkscreen printed on Letra Ecru 300 gsm
Measures: 34.00 x 24.50 in
86.4 x 62.2 cm
Edition of 50
This work is signed and numbered by the artist on recto.
The imagery for this edition is derived in part from what Michael Bauer calls his “telephone drawings”—quick, loose sketches made while talking on the phone or otherwise distracted. Bauer saves these doodles, no matter how rough or silly, and uses them as raw materials to be copied, scanned, altered, and combined. Bauer often works in series, making groups of paintings that metaphorically “talk back” to one another while simultaneously standing on their own as individual works. As he says, “Every painting that I do relies on the last twenty I did.” In a neat literalization of his process, this print includes the words “baba” and “creme,” recurring terms Bauer uses as verbal readymades for their phonetic qualities and mutable meanings.
The amorphic, animalistic forms of German painter Michael Bauer are built upon color washes, meandering lines, and bulbous protrusions. Utilizing a variety of rendering techniques and materials, including pointillism, text and high-chroma colors, Bauer transforms his free-form compositions into dynamic and ornamented abstractions. He borrows from the colorful tradition of Modernist composition, juxtaposing collaged cutouts with a bevy of 20th century painting methodologies—including Cubist, Pop, and Surrealist techniques—to make the swirling paintings...
