Kerber Verlag Maria Lassnig
Maria Lassnig (1919–2014) is one of the most important women artists in art after 1960. Over her decades-long career, she produced an extensive and singular oeuvre in the fields of painting, drawing, and graphic reproductions, with intermittent excursions into (animation) film and sculpture. At the centre of her work are visualisations of physical perceptions, or so-called body-awareness pictures. Her painstaking self-analyses are also expressed in numerous self-portraits. Helmut Klewan accompanied Maria Lassnig as a gallerist for over three decades. This led to the development of a rich inventory of oil paintings and works on paper as well as one sculpture. Forty works from various creative phases were selected for the exhibition in Berlin. Text in English and German.

De Gruyter „Die wahre Kunst ist immer da, wo man sie nicht erwartet“ / “True art is where it is not expected”: Dubuffet, Chaissac, Soutter, Gill, Held, Wölfli
German-english edition As an artist, and as a theorist and collector of Art brut, Jean Dubuffet changed the concept of art in the 20th century. He provided a definition of Art brut in 1949: "we understand it as works executed by people untouched by artistic culture [...]." These included Gaston Chaissac, Louis Soutter, Adolf Wölfli, Madge Gill and Margarethe Held. The self-taught artists and social outsiders gave him inspiration on his own path in art; they released the delight in experimentation so characteristic of Dubuffet’s work, along with anti-cultural and anti-aesthetic ideas. The book presents a selection of works from the extensive holdings of the Klewan Collection.
