Book of the Day > Urs Fischer: Paintings. Published by Kiito-San. "Housed in a slipcase, this three-volume retrospective of the paintings of Urs Fischer (born 1973) offers the viewer an intimate look at every painting produced from the beginning of his career up to 2017.Fischer’s two-dimensional works elegantly encapsulate some of his greatest strengths: color, precision and juxtaposition. His inventive approach to painting capitalizes on the relationship between photography and painting in many works, exploring two-dimensional texture.The images in this book are printed to scale relative to one another. Selected works are also printed 1:1, providing the reader with a detail view not available in any other context. This retrospective includes fresh documentation of early collage works, many of which have not been exhibited for years."
