Janaina Tschäpe

The paintings of German-Brazilian artist Janaina Tschäpe skillfully blur the line between landscape and imagination through their highly gestural and beautifully colored compositions. This volume highlights the last seven years of the artists work, which has seen a breakthrough in the level of visual complexity, technical confidence, and aesthetic freedom which she brings to her work. A new essay by art historian Joachim Pissarro delves into the literary and historical references that shape and inform Tschäpes approach to painting. Richly illustrated, with superb reproductions of Tschäpes work, alongside installation images of her museum and gallery exhibitions worldwide, this monograph documents a prolific period of creativity and boundary-pushing use of media.
