80 colour pencils

Abstract

Published as part of “Fortsetzung folgt” / 80 full-page illustration in colour, pad binding

The artist’s pad “80 colour pencils” by Marion Ritzmann is published as part of the series “Fortsetzung folgt” (to be continued), an open sequence of individual publications, which are connected and contextualized through the artist’s website as an integral part of the project. The starting point for “80 colour pencils” is a box of eighty crayons in different colours and the concept of painting an A4 sheet of paper completely with each of them, resulting in eighty monochrome drawings. For the publication, these were facsimiled and glued into a pad as a colour fan. A bit-link on the cover page takes us to the corresponding entry on the artist's website, where we find further documentary visual material and a description of the work.
