This volume in Afteralls One Work series offers an illustrated exploration of <em>Freundinnen</em> (<em>Girlfriends</em> 1965/66), one of Polkes important early paintings. Taken from a found image of two young women, and using the raster dots also found in mass media reproductions, <em>Girlfriends</em> offers a statement about the use and social function of images.</p><p>Stefan Gronert approaches <em>Girlfriends</em> through its deliberate and elusive ambiguity, providing technical detail and historical background that allow some of the works motivation and depth to become clearer. Gronert analyzes Polkes relationship to his tutors and peers, especially Gerhard Richter; describes the art historical context in which Polke worked; and discusses some of the social and political issues to which <em>Girlfriends</em> refers. Considering such topics as the distinction between Polke and Alain Jacquet in their use of photographed material, between Polkes use of the raster technique and that of Roy Lichtenstein, and the feminist discourse of the time, Gronert draws on a variety of critical interpretations of Polkes work, including some material that has not yet been translated into English.</p>...3756453Sigmar Polke295409https://www.gandhi.com.mx/sigmar-polke-9781846381843/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/2498820/23f476b4-79d1-44a3-a79b-88fb79b269a4.jpg?v=638384058793830000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20199781846381843_W3siaWQiOiI2ZDY1NzFlYS05N2MwLTQ4YTUtOGMyMC1lYzJjNGI2ODA5YjIiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjM5OSwiZGlzY291bnQiOjExMiwic2VsbGluZ1ByaWNlIjoyODcsImluY2x1ZGVzVGF4Ijp0cnVlLCJwcmljZVR5cGUiOiJXaG9sZXNhbGUiLCJjdXJyZW5jeSI6Ik1YTiIsImZyb20iOiIyMDI0LTEyLTAxVDAwOjAwOjAwWiIsInJlZ2lvbiI6Ik1YIiwiaXNQcmVvcmRlciI6ZmFsc2V9XQ==9781846381843_<p><strong>An illustrated exploration of <em>Girlfriends</em> (1965/66), one of Sigmar Polkes important early paintings.</strong></p><p>The artist Sigmar Polke (19412010) worked across a broad range of mediaincluding photography, painting, printmaking, sculpture, and filmand in styles that varied from abstract expressionism to Pop.
