SZCZESNY – “FIESTA” – EIN FEST FÜR DIE AUGEN

Description

Stefan Szczesny consider himself Mediterranean through and through. His work, accordingly, exudes a Mediterranean spirit and southern joie de vivre. This book brings together works that Stefan Szczesny produced during an extended stay in Seville, among them canvasses as well as large ceramics. In 2003, these works were shown in an exhibition at the Gustav-Lübcke-Museum in Hamm, the gaiety of colours providing a veritable ‘feast for the eyes’. This book was produced on the occasion of this exhibition and affords insights not only into Szczesny’s ‘Spanish oeuvre’, but also into his life in Seville. The book also includes an introductory text by the art historian Burkhard Richter, a short biography and a list of Szczesny’s most important exhibitions until 2003.
