PAST EXHIBITION

Olaf Nicolai: Considering a Multiplicity of Appearances in Light of a Particular Aspect of Relevance. Or: Can Art be Concrete?

March 28, 2008—May 10, 2008

Conceived by the artist as a single work, the project consists of 16 color prints on custom painted walls and 400 color books displayed on tables across the room. Prints and books were done as high-quality Iris prints with the artist randomly feeding different colors one at a time into an offset printing machine. The mechanical movements of the printing make the resulting color mix on each sheet a unique, never to be repeated print. This rarely used process - unlike most commercial printing – allows pure color printing without any dot screens.
