Ink Wash on Paper

Andreas Chwatal: Ink Wash on Paper brings together 300 of the most important works on paper by the Munich-based artist (b. 1982) from over the last 17 years. The artworks, some of them drawn in minute detail, are part of a continuous, fictitious pictorial narrative, which is presented in full for the first time here. With a text section featuring art-historical analysis, an interview with the artist, and a comprehensive overview of all works, this first monograph is like a catalogue raisonne of Chwatal's oeuvre. At the same time, it illuminates the narrative style and method of ink wash drawing, which is highly distinctive in contemporary art. Text in English and German.
