{"product_id":"9783903320147","title":"Ross Bleckner: Paintings 1985–2018","description":"The art of New York–based painter Ross Bleckner (born 1949) seems to constantly reinvent itself, speaking again and again of the fragility of existence and the human desire for a metaphysical vanishing point behind the world. Death is everywhere in his oeuvre, intertwined with beauty: pictures of flowers or human cells, transformed by the artist into glowing lanterns, explore a terrain between biology, psychology and identity; and when letters appear almost imperceptibly between the stripes on one picture, spelling out the words \"Remember Them,\" the epitaph pertains to Bleckner’s long-term addressing of AIDS. Two paintings that constitute a striking memorial to the victims of AIDS, in the form of domed skies recalling Schinkel’s stage set for \u003ci\u003eThe Magic Flute\u003c\/i\u003e, are included here. This volume features a selection of paintings from 1985–2018.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN 9783903320147.
