  • NEO RAUCH by Ingrid MÖssinger

The definitive monograph on the acclaimed German artist Neo Rauch, one of the most influential figurative painters working today

Neo Rauch is one of the world's most successful and popular contemporary artists. A leading force of the Leipzig School, the group of artists that emerged from East Germany in the early 1990s after the fall of the Berlin Wall, Rauch quickly established himself internationally through his large canvases featuring a crossover between Surrealism and popular imagery.

Characterized by a bright acidic palette, Rauch's ambiguous landscapes are populated by spatially connected, alienated figures conjuring a mysterious atmosphere of distorted nostalgia and failed Utopia. This career-spanning monograph was made in close collaboration with the artist, showcasing Rauch's work alongside essays and texts that illuminate his work and career.
