For over 50 years as a leading figure of Photorealist painting, Franz Gertsch (b. 1930, Switzerland) has created lively, expansive portraits of charismatic youths and meditative depictions of nature in vivid and painstaking detail. Polyfocal Allover surveys paintings from 1970 to 1982 and woodcut prints from 1979 to 2019, reflecting a vision in which all that lies within the frame is given equivalent value. The essays, interviews and conversations in this publication bring further definition to the lives and landscapes that Gertsch renders with virtuosic precision.

Harald Szeemann – with by through because towards despite

Clegg & Guttmann

Since the early 1980s, the photographs of Clegg & Guttmann have explored the representation of power and the codification of gestures. Famous for their images of powerful people or families inspired both by seventeenth-century Dutch painting and commissioned portraits for annual reports, they have developed various typologies of photographic portraiture over the past three decades. This volume examines two typological series in particular: "Portraits and Artworks" and "Collaborative Portraits." These series feature artist sitters such as Sari Carel, Joseph Kosuth, David Robbins, Christoph Schlingensief, Joseph Strau, Franz Erhard Walther and Franz West.
