He discovered the print medium early on, producing his first etchings in 1964. From then on he experimented with very different techniques, such as dry-point, aquatint, and then later with wood- and linocuts. In the process he explored the specific requirements of these artistic forms of expression, developing his own unique works on paper.\u003cBR\u003eWith the inclusion of prints that have never before been exhibited, this volume presents a choice selection of works from a very important branch of Baselitz’s oeuvre. The original prints, print series, and rare artist’s proofs dating from 1964 to 1983 stem from the excellent collection belonging to Franz, Duke of Bavaria, head of the House of Wittelsbach. This book contains Baselitz’s first etchings, the figural \u003cI style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal\"\u003eHeroes\u003c\/I\u003e from the mid-sixties, and excerpts from the portfolio series \u003cI style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal\"\u003eCows \u003c\/I\u003e(1969), \u003cI style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal\"\u003eEagles\u003c\/I\u003e, and \u003cI style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal\"\u003eTrees \u003c\/I\u003e(both 1974).
