Vittorio Brodmann’s pictorial worlds are characterized by figures whose emotional turbulences seem familiar. They are creatures, often grotesque, strange, melancholic, desperate, the whole range of humanity with all its contradictions, stood against the background of painting and its history. His images are full of humor, but one that does not make you laugh out loud.
Water Under the Bridge is the first comprehensive monograph on Brodmann’s consistent devotion to painting. It was conceived in the wake of the exhibition of the same name at the Kunsthalle Bern (2016, curated by Valérie Knoll) and offers the first overview of fifteen years of painting. Texts by Mitchell Anderson and Ariane Müller, both artists and authors, as well as by Valérie Knoll, curator and co-editor of the publication, open up a variety of perspectives on Brodmann’s approach and the influences that shape his visual worlds.

Book for 20 instead of 28 Euro.
