26 April - 20 July 2013

The main work of Hans-Peter Feldmann consists of books. In our five solo exhibitions since 1995 the focus has been repeatedly put on Feldmann's bookwork – for example, in 1998 we showed in our gallery the book "Die Toten" (The Deads). In the current exhibition we enfold the major part of his books extensively. We begin with "Bilder" (pictures) which are gray booklets with stamp imprint and offsetprints of photographs. Also we show "Zeitserien" (time-series), folders with original photographs from the ‘70s glued on cardboard, many books with glued-in photocopies and magazine projects such as the magazine "Profil", which appeared on a concept by Feldmann without words. Feldmann presents in our exhibition never shown books such as "Kleine Bilder" (little pictures), a book with stamps or the rare "Fingerhut Post" (The Thimble Mail).
