Unique overpainted artist’s book by Martin Lytke. Acrylic on a double-page spread from a publication on ancient keltic pottery. The original book remains intact, transforming the publication itself into a one-of-a-kind art object.
Inspired by the expressive figures of German Expressionist painter Otto Müller, the composition gradually emerged from the printed imagery and gave the work its title, Frau Müller.
The volume also contains additional artistic interventions on selected pages.
