John M Armleder is one of the most important contemporary artists in Europe. His extensive oeuvre includes large-scale installations, paintings, light works, and performances. The profound and the banal, control and coincidence, high culture and everyday life coalesce in Armleder's work to create a unique experience. The Swiss artist (b. 1948) is one of the most influential contemporary conceptual, performance, and object artists. His works--often humorous or ironically twisted commentaries on contemporary reality--draw on the formal repertoire of Classical Modernism, as well as on video and design, the influences of which he combines in a wide range of media. The present volume focuses on two large-scale, site-specific installations--one indoor and one outdoor--to illustrate in detail the broad spectrum of Armleder's work. By combining different media, surfaces, and materials, the artist creates spatial events which, despite their heterogeneity, have a great aesthetic effect on the viewer. The catalog is published in conjunction with the exhibition at the Schirn Kunsthalle Frankfurt (June 7 to September 1, 2019).
