Now available: second volume of Gregor Kunz’s Von den Busche trilogy:
Gregor Kunz – Inscape, Orte: Jedermann weiß, was ein Kopf ist
Gregor Kunz’s collection of collages Inscape, Orte is the second volume of his Captain von den Busche trilogy. The trilogy, of which the first volume Look at the Seascape was published by Moloko Plus in 2019, was produced between 2000 and 2009 and comprises some 500 pieces of work. The third volume – Escape – will be published by Moloko Plus in the near future. Designed by Robert Schalinski Kunz’s books of collages are developing into a marvellous triad of mini revelations.
With its tongue-in-cheek references to Max Ernst, Jules Verne, Baron Münchhausen and its quotations from authors and poets as varied as Robert Desnos, André Breton, Luis Buñuel and George Grosz, this new compilation of woodcut collages is a sequel to Kunz’s personal exploration of the 20th-century avantgarde and its 19th-century predecessors. With the fictitious Captain von dem Busche at the wheel, Kunz manages to navigate from territories already charted in the 19th and 20th centuries, to more personal horizons and coasts. Kunz’s approach turns each of his collages into a strange, at times unsettling, adventure. Read more & order now →
