Jürgen Partenheimer (b. Munich, 1947) rose to international renown with his participations in the biennials of Paris, Venice, and São Paulo. The book, which was designed in close collaboration with the artist, sheds light on various aspects of his oeuvre. Authors writing in several languages and representing a variety of disciplines, including Anne Carson, Lebogang Mashile, Carla Schulz-Hoffmann, John Burnside, Oswald Egger, and Rudi Fuchs, accepted the invitation to contribute their personal perspectives.
Partenheimer
This book focuses on the exhibition history of a bronze Sculpture by the artist Juegen Partenheimer entitled Axis of the World. Through a variety of images and writing by several contributors in the fields of art history, criticism, and curating, it considers questions of architectural and cultural context that affect the interpretation of a piece of art. Also included is a wide selection of the artist's work in the media of sculpture, painting, drawing, and watercolor.
Roma Sâo Paulo
Jürgen Partenheimer, born in Munich in 1947, is one of the most internationally renowned German artists of his generation. His Minimalist, abstract paintings, drawings and sculptural work reach out to a wide spectrum of worldly and theoretical associations and carry subtle emotional vibes. The cycle of drawings featured in this collection, produced in 2004 and 2005 during stays in Rome and São Paulo, are exceptionally strong, capturing in the form of a sketchbook diary the artist's graphic reactions to these new environments. Using decisive lines, brushstrokes and color planes, Partenheimer describes his state of mind as he adjusts to the rhythms of life in Italy and Brazil, particularly in his changing perception of time. According to the artist, "The drawing is a way of noting down thinking and feeling in pictures."
Copan
In the spring of 2005, the respected German artist Jürgen Partenheimer spent almost a month in the huge Oskar Niemeyer-designed Copan building in Sao Paulo. He kept a diary, and in reflective, deeply honest and poetic language, used it to come to grips with the architecture, topography, climate and life of the city, disclosing not just his thoughts but many aspects of his artistic process. Entry one reads simply, "A pall of heavy sultry air, laden with petrol fumes, smothers the city." Entry 29, his last, finishes, "Time creeps by at breakneck speed, the desk waits patiently for the daily ritual, the prospect of endless repetition. I decide to quit. Clear up, leave the apartment, climb down from my raised hide on the 28th floor and leave town. Back to Europe. Two drawings lie on the floor next to the desk, begun in brave resistance to my planned departure."
