In his bizarre projects, which must be categorized somewhere between photography, film, and installation, Mayer uses found objects and personal experience as starting points in his attempt to develop a hyperrealistic world view. With their focus on the conceptual and abstract, these latest works take on an additional poetic aesthetic.\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US\u003e\u003cFONT size=2 face=TheSans-Plain\u003eThis is the first book to comprehensively document all of Mayer’s creations of the last decade, each of which is explained in a short text, while a longer essay and an interview with the artist provide further insight.\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP\u003e\u003cFONT size=2 face=TheSans-Plain\u003eExhibition schedule: Galerie EIGEN+ART, Leipzig, January 19–April \u0026nbsp;19, 2008\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\n","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44874875109640,"sku":"9783775721288","price":39.8,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775721288_5796d370-5507-4b8d-8af3-617903b21954.jpg?v=1744114060","url":"https:\/\/www.hatjecantz.de\/en\/products\/15914-maix-mayer","provider":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
