Fusing European expressionism with American popular culture, Andr Butzer started painting his way through the artistic and political extremes of the 20th century. With wideranging influences including the likes of Friedrich Hlderlin, Edvard Munch, Walt Disney, and Henry Ford, he developed a fictitious universe centered around the space colony NASAHEIM. There dwells the PeaceSiemens, a friendly headshape that combines utopian ideas with the economical thinking of budding massconsumerism, while a figure like the Wanderer offers romantic projections, or the ShameHuman reflections of the political past. This universe lends thematic depth to the canvases, with the characters acting as protagonists of paint, surrounding the NHouse, home of all colors, in the style the artist has termed ScienceFiction Expressionism.Some years into the new millennium, the colors took on a life of their own and grew into abstract paintings of lines freewheeling across the canvas. Moving closer to the limits of painting, from 2010 on Butzer explored the fundamental dimensions and potentialities of painterly expression in the seemingly black surfaces of his NPaintings. At this point, Butzer relocated to California in 2018, painting outdoors yearround. The resulting works brim with colorful freshness, an extended family of lines and figurations with new attitudes refined by their experiences at the far edge of abstraction.This revised and updated edition spans the full range of Butzers oeuvre from 1999 to 2023, the works progression gaining an almost musical drive of development, return, and new beginnings. The plates are interspersed with contemporary quotes from the artist that illuminate his idiosyncratic stance as a background to the work, as well as photos from his archives. The introductory essay, written by Hans Werner Holzwarth, investigates the different work phases, and places the artists ideas in a wider discourse of abstraction and figuration after the end of either genre. And, most importantly, the books pristine, hugeformat illustrations fully evidence the finesse as a colorist that place this artist among the internationally most recognized painters of his generation.
