This book is the first publication devoted to a previously largely overlooked group of works by the internationally acclaimed artist Rebecca Horn—her rich and diverse graphic oeuvre. The drawings completed by Rebecca Horn since the sixties include preliminary studies for sculptures, works produced in conjunction with her sculptures and installations, and entirely autonomous pieces. Many of these diagrams, scores, technical designs, and evidently spontaneous drawings are enriched with collaged objects, printed words, and lines of poetry.The significance of this representative volume of drawings from the past forty years is enhanced by a parallel presentation of her installations, which offers an unprecedented opportunity to listen in on the intensive dialogue between these two work complexes and to gain an appreciation for the originality and authenticity of her graphic oeuvre. Featuring expert commentaries and a highly informative interview with the artist, the book provides an excellent survey of Rebecca Horn’s graphic art.
