Description

» Rose Wylie. Flick and Float« presents the nonconformist and fascinating work of the British artist Rose Wylie. She has won global recognition with her unique artistic practice and wide range of themes. Wylie's large-format paintings are a mixture of figurative representation, abstraction and stories in pictures. Expressive, direct and filled with subversive humour, they bear witness to the artist's engagement with pop culture, literature, history, and personal experiences. Wylie's artistic language is deliberately simple, and recalls the aesthetic of Bad Painting and Post-Pop. With works from the last thirty years, the book provides an insight into the untamed oe uvre of an artist who overcomes conventional boundaries and occupies a unique place in the contemporary art scene. Individual works are also being painted specially for the exhibition in Bern, and shown to the public for the first time, just as Juergen Teller's photographs, in their inimitable way, introduce us to the artists' world in her different way.
