Pop Expressionism: Works on Paper by Phillip-Rudolf Humm (Art Solos) - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

<div>Philipp Rudolf Humm is a German/Belgian artist living in London. After initially pursuing painting alongside a demanding day job, Humm left the world of business to be a full-time artist in 2015. Humm is known for his narrative figurative paintings set together in collections, each of which is based on a theme. He combines contemporary styles with old masters&#8217; techniques, and his work bears the influence of his early studies of existentialist philosophy, particularly the work of Heidegger and Sartre. Humm&#8217;s art engages with ideas of humanism,, consumerism, and the impact of technology upon the human condition.<br> &#160;<br> In this authoritative look at Humm&#8217;s work, Edward Lucie-Smith analyzes how Humm&#8217;s art is often a paradox in itself &#8220;since paintings are essentially things made to be seen, not to be heard, not to be listened to&#8221; but Humm&#8217;s work is characterized by a&#160; &#8220;desire to communicate thoughts and ideas in the most efficient way possible.&#8221; <i>Pop Expressionism </i>offers a wonderful introduction to the work of an artist whose renown is continuing to grow.<br> &#160;</div>
