Ilya Kabakov

Ilya Kabakov (*1933) is one of the former Soviet Unions most important and influential international artists today. After the two-volume catalogue raisonn of paintings (2008) and 2017s catalogue raisonn of installations, we are now publishing a complete overview of Kabakovs recent paintings. Different ideas, phases, and styles unfold across the 350 works of art, but the artists inimitable signature can always be recognised. Visual themes include, for example, the colour white, the relationship between complete and incomplete, and the combination of either various styles or of painting and photography. Still, all of the pieces have one thing in common: they all pursue a conceptual approach and make references to art history.
