- Summary:
- "Christoph M. Loos (b. Bad Reichenhall, 1959; lives and works in Essen) is a leading exponent of contemporary printmaking. His is one of the most radical positions in woodcutting today. The defining feature of his series is the hybridization of printing block and print: the media on which Loos prints are wafer-thin sheets of wood sliced off a tree trunk previously used as a printing block. This technique imparts a “genetic kinship” with the woodblock to the resulting print. The artist and art theorist's woodcuts and woodcut installations have been featured in major group exhibitions for two decades. His work is characterized by his sensual and yet conceptual approach to his medium, bridging the gap between graphic art and sculpture. The book presents a survey of Loos's oeuvre of the past ten years: woodcuts, installations, and drawings. Tobias Burg, Stefan Gronert, Astrid Reuter, Susan Tallman and others contributed writings"--Publisher's website.
