Description

Using found texts, images, and technologies (such as slide projectors, typewriters, typographical elements, and relief printing), Czech artist Pavel Büchler distills new meaning from the everyday. With lightness and precision, he appropriates objects from their usual functions and places them in sober compositions, making references to art history, literature, and philosophy in the process. This is the first monograph to offer a complete overview of Büchler's body of work, ranging from his early collages to the 'action activities' and 'artist books'. Includes essays by Pavlina Morganova and Philippe Pirotte, plus an interview with the artist by Lisa Le Feuvre.
