| Summary: | "Internationally renowned artist Heiner Meyer (b. 1953) utilizes Pop Art strategies, combining visual material from a vast variety of contexts. His paintings combine comic figures, compositions by Picasso or Hockney, and advertising for modern luxury brands, condensing them into a new pictorial creation that allows for a diverse range of reflections that update the critical potential of Pop Art in the face of contemporary consumerism. The publication Pop Art Now shows various views of the installation and paintings from the exhibition at the Kunstforum Wien in Vienna, as well as recent works from the last two years. In her text, the art historian Dr. Renée Gadsden provides insights into the exhibition and Heiner Meyer's oeuvre since the beginning of his artistic career"-- |
