In 1977, a group of his drawings was shown at documenta 6. Although Gäfgen has long preferred etchings and has recently produced virtuoso mezzotints, in the late eighties he turned to producing large-format relief prints.\u003c?xml:namespace prefix = \"o\" \/\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; mso-ansi-language: EN-US\"\u003eGäfgen’s prints are singular among contemporary relief prints, since none of them reflect the typical characteristics of woodcuts. The artist deliberately elects to work with neutral plywood panels, which have no grain, and he dispenses with all expressive gestures when carving and printing. This publication presents a selection of his works, many of which are diptychs or triptychs.\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; mso-ansi-language: EN-US\"\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003cSPAN style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans\"\u003eExhibition schedule: Städtisches Kunstmuseum Spendhaus, Reutlingen, November 27, 2010–January 23, 2011\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/P\u003e\n","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44874860036360,"sku":"9783775727679","price":25.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775727679_c087ed85-8dce-45c0-9134-d5965c6d5f56.jpg?v=1744148358","url":"https:\/\/www.hatjecantz.de\/en\/products\/16552-wolfgang-gaefgen","provider":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
