Daniel Spoerri (Verlag der Buchhandlung Walther Konig)

The book being published in spring 2021 on occasion of the exhibition "Daniel Spoerri" at the Bank Austria Kunstforum Wien allows a comprehensive insight into Daniel Spoerri's over 60 years spanning artistic practice, boasting numerous, partly first time reproductions of works and archival material. With his since the 1960s continuously developed snare pictures (Tableaux pièges) Spoerri inscribed himself into art history. Moreover, the book illustrates that the universal artist and ardent collector is versed in virtually all artistic media. This bilingual publication showcases Daniel Spoerri's work which is defined aby refined humour, multilingualism, and inventiveness through texts and images.Texts by: Ingried Brugger, Hans Peter Hahn, Barbara Räderscheidt, Veronika Rudorfer, Daniel Spoerri, Katerina Vatsella
