Summary: | The Romanian artist Dan Perjovschi (born 1961) is one of the foremost draughtsmen on the international art scene. For the project Recession , which this book records, Perjovschi covered the two large wall spaces of the Ludwig Forum fur Internationale Kunst with a dense reference system, executed in white chalk on black ground, and diagramming a huge range of contemporary social, cultural and political phenomena in crude pictograms. This publication traces the project in a diaristic fashion and steers the reader's attention from broad views of the installation to detailed close-up. The fact that Perjovschi's drawings will be erased after one year makes Recession an indispensable document. |
