Description
Stephan Grunenberg (b. 1954) paints peculiar portraits: not heads or sitting and reclining figures but seemingly independent feet, legs, trousers, socks or soles of shoes. These and other under-appreciated motives are playfully arranged in captivating compositions which take issue with our hierarchical habits while looking at art. "Leaving out the 'civilized', educated head and centering on neglected parts such as the legs, including the lower abdomen-which is either eroticized or made taboo-is the artist's point", writes Oliver Koerner von Gustorf in an essay that accompanies the images inside this small and attractive new book. The paintings reproduced in this volume were all exhibited in Grunenberg's latest exhibition in 2024, which was titled tongue-in-cheek "Representatives Regional To Earth."
