Art catalog »Fruchtig«

Foundation for Fruit Painting and Sculpture

In the art publication »Fruity. Fruit in the visual arts of the 20th and 21st centuries«, the name says it all. The trendy design, striking typography and sophisticated layout are refreshing all round! The lively layout with illustrative elements and brilliant images is particularly eye-catching thanks to the decisive color scheme, emphasized by a subtle complementary contrast. The publication is enhanced, or rather sweetened, by hot foil stamping and a humorous offer insert.
Together with the Dr. Rainer Wild Collection, the Foundation for Fruit Painting and Sculpture has livened up the representation of fruit in art in a pleasant and unconventional way. The catalog brings together works of painting, drawing, printmaking, sculpture, video projection and installation. All the works revolve around the same subject: fruit. The theme is almost inexhaustible. Fruit is tempting to eat, rich in vitamins and also beautiful to look at. No wonder that fruit is ubiquitously used in art. The high significance of the subject is taken up in this art publication and brings together selected essays as well as interviews with the artists represented in the collections David Adamo, the Clayton Brothers, Ann Craven, Gabriella Gerosa and Uwe Wittwer.
