{"product_id":"42292-ben-willikens","title":"Ben Willikens","description":"\u003cp\u003eBen Willikens became known for his paintings of vacant spaces where time seems to stand still. For a long time gray dominated his palette, and his subtle orchestration of light and perspective attracted both beholders and interpreters who found a \u0026ldquo;theater of absence\u0026rdquo; in his work.\u003cbr \/\u003e\nYet Willikens\u0026rsquo;s oeuvre is more extensive and multifaceted than previous catalogues from his many exhibitions have led to believe. Now, this comprehensive overview is the first to present the entire range of his oeuvre.\u003cbr \/\u003e\nIn more than 250 pictures, from his drawings of the 1960s to the \u003cem\u003eAnstaltsbilder\u003c\/em\u003e (institution paintings) and his \u003cem\u003eAbendmahl \u003c\/em\u003e(Last Supper) of the 1970s, the \u003cem\u003eGegenr\u0026auml;ume \u003c\/em\u003e(counter spaces)\u0026nbsp; and \u003cem\u003eORTE \u003c\/em\u003e(SITES) to the ceiling painting known as the \u003cem\u003eLeipziger Firmament\u003c\/em\u003e (2014), this survey recapitulates an artistic development in which car paint, watercolors, drawings, photography, gouaches, collages, acrylic paint, and silkscreens have played a role\u0026mdash;and for the last decade also the entire range of colors.
