Peter Kogler California 1990 12 Offset-Prints 34,5 x 49,5 cm Ed 1000
Peter Kogler (*1959, Austria) started at the beginning of the 1980s to use media and computer technology as the basis for his installative works, confronting and blending the perfectionism of the new technologies with physical and organic motifs. His often installative works have been presented in solo exhibitions in international institutions like mumok Vienna, ING Art Center Brussels, MUDAM Luxembourg, Kunstverein Hannover and Villa Arson.
The work „California“ was made in collaboration with Museum in Progress, who organized a one year long cooperation with Peter Kogler and the Austrian newspaper „Der Standard“. Every month Peter Kogler sent one page from Los Angeles to Vienna, which was published in the newspaper. The 12 offset prints come together in a transparent folder with a cover, which is signed and numbered by the artist.
Works by Peter Kogler are part of many institutional collections, like mumok Vienna, Generali Foundation, MUSEION, MAMCO Geneva and the Vancouver Art Gallery.
