Martin Rupprecht

For the first time, set designer Martin Rupprecht presents his extensive collection of non-commissioned works. The paintings, drawings and collages were created alongside and between his theater works, in the great establishments in Germany, Zurich, Budapest, St. Petersburg, Oslo, Stockholm, Miami, Paris, Seoul, Tokyo and Athens. Clear the stage for an art which in spite of its non-representationality, shorthand and scribblings need not be questioned. The tension crackling between the various pictorial elements is what makes a book like this so riveting and masterful. The artist demonstrates his presence and operates with cheerful aplomb on the stage of his passion.
