Blalla W. Hallmann - Heim, mir reicht's Unknown - 1992

(Berlin): Neue Gesellschaft für Bildende Kunst (NGBK), 1992. Very good plus.. First edition of this late-career catalog of work by Hallmann, with critical essays by Jürgen Raap/Karl-Josef Bär, Matthias Reichelt, and Norbert Stratmann. Though sometimes classed as an "outsider" artist for his use of his own acute psychiatric crises as subject matter and his incorporation of folk-art techniques, Hallmann was also a well-established art world insider: trained at the Academy of Fine Arts in Dusseldorf and the Academy of Fine Arts in Nuremberg, he would also go on to teach at the University of California San Francisco and the Braunschweig University of Art. HEIM, MIR REICHT'S was published just a few years before the artist's death in 1997. 9.5'' x 8.25''. Text in German. Original gilt-lettered black cloth. Illustrated with color plates throughout. 95, [1] pages. Light staining to front board.
