Zusatztext 'The poet's sensibility to rhythm and line that has made Michael Glover one of Britain's best art critics serves him to perfection when it comes to this closely observed monograph of Neo Rauch. Worlds beyond mere description or arid analysis, the author shifts between conversation, poetry and prose in a rhythmic counterpoint of insight, elucidation and careful observation. Never overshadowing the book's subject, he invites the reader to an elegant choreography of two minds in creative motion, the poet and the artist, moving in tandem, in search of a common understanding. Questioning, curious and provocative, this text gives us fresh ways to read - and see - the artist's work' Informationen zum Autor Michael Glover is a poet and the visual arts critic and senior feature writer for the Independent.
