Sculptor, poet and performance artist Timm Ulrichs (born 1940) is considered one of the most influential German conceptual and action artists. This funny and charming artist’s book tackles an ongoing project of his: taking photographs in places where that activity is expressly prohibited. A delight in flaunting authority is immediately palpable in these furtive snapshots.

My breast is inhabited by twin souls: the one a dadaist and the other a constructivist, German artist Timm Ulrichs jokes, and his colossal oeuvre, spanning a half-century, does indeed oscillate between irreverent performance and bright, Pop-ish take on the rigors of Constructivism. This volume surveys his works, from film to sculpture and painting.
