Tal R: The Egyptian Boy

Published by Moderne Kunst Nürnberg

Tal R: You Laugh an Ugly Laugh

Edited by Dirk Luckow. Text by Martin Hellmold, Belinda Grace Gardner, Jörg Heiser, Dörte Zbikowski.
Published by DuMont Buchverlag

The Tel Aviv-born artist Tal R (born (1967) makes collages, photographs and paintings that energize the eye with their exuberant and brash forms and colors. A kindred spirit to Dieter Roth, and collaborator with Jonathan Meese, Tal R is prolific and projects an infectious spirit of openness in his work. He often begins his paintings not with geometric designs (though his work is formally rigorous) but with language: "I always start with a small sentence... such as 'two men with tall hats sit in a corridor watching a Chinese pagoda.' I have certain ideas about these two men sitting there, and I want the picture to be exactly like the sentence, or rather, like the break in the sentence." This monograph is published on the occasion of the exhibition You Laugh an Ugly Laugh, and provides a broad assessment of his work to date.

Tal R.: House of Prince

Text by Jorg Heiser.
Published by Walther König, Köln

Kolbojnik is Hebrew for leftovers, and that's how Israel-born artist Tal R describes his work. "I do painting a bit like people make a lunch box. I constantly have this hot-pot boiling and I throw all kinds of material into it." His House of Prince is a labor of some four years consisting of approximately 200 paintings inspired by popular and high culture.
