Albert Oehlen 1991, 2008
Interview by Max Dax.
Albert Oehlen
Surveying the past thirty years of his career and demonstrating his immeasurable influence on contemporary painting, Albert Oehlen: Home and Garden comprises paintings, drawings, and prints from the artist's most important bodies of work. From the beginning of his career, Oehlen set himself the task of exploring the language, structures, and experiences of painting. He has managed to reinvigorate the genres of portraiture, collage, and gestural abstraction in work that deploys a staggering range of imagery and techniques. Oehlen's canvases capture haunting interiors, mutating self-portraits, archaic and digital landscapes, and cryptic fragments of language. As a younger generation of artists turns again to painting as a critical medium, Oehlen's work has only become more influential and prescient.
Albert Oehlen - Elevator Paintings - Trees
Oehlen?s oeuvre is a testament to the innate freedom of the creative act. Unleashing this freedom through self-imposed constraints, Oehlen sets rules and boundaries in order to test the breaking point of painting itself. Through expressionist brushwork, Surrealist methodology, computer-generated lines, and self-conscious amateurism, he multiplies the potential of visual codes through processes of persistent accretion.00Exhibition: Gagosian Gallery, New York, USA (28.02.-15.04.2017).

Permission to Laugh
Permission to Laugh explores the work of three generations of German artists who, beginning in the 1960s, turned to jokes and wit in an effort to confront complex questions regarding German politics and history. Gregory H. Williams highlights six of them—Martin Kippenberger, Isa Genzken, Rosemarie Trockel, Albert Oehlen, Georg Herold, and Werner Büttner—who came of age in the mid-1970s in the art scenes of West Berlin, Cologne, and Hamburg. Williams argues that each employed a distinctive brand of humor that responded to the period of political apathy that followed a decade of intense political ferment in West Germany. Situating these artists between the politically motivated art of 196...

Albert Oehlen Boxed Edition
Limited to 1,000 copies, each numbered and signed by the artist, each signed by the artist. Often wryly funny and just as smart, Albert Oehlen's paintings play the medium for all it's worth. After an early realization that the so-called death of painting actually freed his enthusiasm as to the number of aspects through which one could expand painting, Oehlen, got to work on a wide variety of figurative and non-objective offerings, in what he has called his post-non-representational art. In his most recent work group Oehlen expands painting through the use of blatant advertising posters whose in-your-face aesthetics he transforms with subtle brushwork. Never without a touch of tongue-in-cheek humor, his work seems to be winking at us as it dares us to change the way we look at an image. Klaus Kertess throws a light on the years from 1988 onwards, when Oehlen saw himself self-consciously as a painter and started his first abstract works, then continued to probe the limits of the medium.

Hyper!
What happens when musicians make use of ideas and strategies from the art world? And what kind of pictures result when painters are influenced by music? To be interested in other people's lives, to follow the unknown, to copy it, to use it in one's own work--in short, to cross-map between the worlds of music and the visual arts: this is the subject of HYPER! A Journey into Art and Music curated by Max Dax, the former editor-in-chief of Spex and Electronic Beats. The book will include classic works such as Peter Saville's ground-breaking album cover for New Order's 1983 masterpiece Power, Corruption and Lies, and the narrative, minimalist imagery of Emil Schult on which the cover of K...
