Schraffuren

Hans Funk (1928-2002) made a name for himself as a draftsman starting in the 1960s and 1970s. From his beginnings in Art Informel, in his large-format pen-and-ink drawings he developed an extensive and independent oeuvre that oscillates betweenrenouncing and preserving form, between spontaneity and reflection. The artist lived and worked in Luneburg in Lower Saxony, thus far away from big cities and their art market protagonists. The volume now being published by his son Tobias Funk presents the development of his brilliant drawing art in eighty images. His drawing oeuvre is also described in detail in three art-historical essays.
