The main work of Hans-Peter Feldmann consists of books and printed matter. In Feldmann’s five solo exhibitions at the gallery since 1995, the focus has been repeatedly put on his book works. We begin our new online section with a selection of rare books, editions and posters by Feldmann – starting with his early Zeitserien (time-series), book objects from the 1970s with original photographs glued on cardboard, to works with glued in photocopies and his magazine projects, such as the piece Profil Nr. 6, 7. Februar 2000 / Profil ohne Worte. From Feldmann’s famous early work series Bilder (pictures), small grey booklets with stamp imprint and offset printed images, we present the football players.
