Up & down Jan Albers

Meer over het boek

The oeuvre of Jan Albers (b. Wuppertal, 1971, grew up in Namibia; lives and works in D�sseldorf), who studied with Jan Dibbets at the D�sseldorf Academy of Art, is one of the central positions in today's discourse of abstract art. With his large-scale crayon drawings, sculptures, and "built pictures," he creates a startling universe that, at first glance, defies all categories of traditional visual habits: novel pictorial experiences between rigorous order and aesthetic luxuriance.
