Summary note
With an approach to painting that is equally sublime and subversive, Tal R (born 1967) has become a star of the international art scene. His artistic spectrum encompasses not only paintings, drawings and collages, but also prints, artist?s books and sculptures. The title references Hugo Ball?s novel 'Flametti', first published in 1918. In 2013 Vienna-based Harpune Verlag reprinted the text, illustrated by Tal R, in a limited-edition artist?s book of 30 copies. Since then, vaudeville director Max Flametti has been Tal R?s companion-in-mind. The Danish artist has created a series of collages, paintings and sculptures inspired by the character from the novel. 00Exhibition: Studio im Zumikum, Nürnberg, Germany (5.2.-2.4.2016).
