Her visual artwork has earned well-deserved international recognition only in the last few years. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis book is the second publication on the highly acclaimed New York artist and presents Ruth Marten's most recent creations - 19 large-format works on paper produced between fall 2018 and summer 2019. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMarten used photographs from the 19th and early 20th centuries as the basis for these artworks. By overpainting the photos, she created literally fantastic pictures that seem to allow the impossible to become possible. Like the pioneers of surrealism, she developed a world between dream and nightmare that is full of mystery, where inanimate objects suddenly become alive and where new, unheard-of phenomena shake up our established worldview. Her works abound in psychoanalytic enigmas that have sprung from the depths of her artistic subconscious. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eText in English and German.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Kettler Verlag\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/30\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783862067930\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 52\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 12.90h x 8.90w x 0.30d","brand":"Van Der Grinten Galerie Cologne","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52604430352565,"sku":"9783862067930","price":34.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/ruth-marten-afterlife-my-20th-century-9783862067930","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
