Two artists, two techniques - a highly unusual collaborative project. The exhibition 'Unleashed' (Musée de la Chasse, Paris, and Bonnefantenmuseum, Maastricht) brings together two very different artists: the photographer Roger Ballen, who lives in South Africa, and the Dutch draughtsman Hans Lemmen. Both share an interest in the 'conditio humana' and in archetypal images that describe a world beyond our familiar civilisation. 'Unleashed' shows a universe of enigmatic dreams and surreal truths, a world apparently out of time, populated by people and animals subject to forces let loose. 140 Seiten, Großformat 24 x 28 cm, broschiert (Kerber Art/Kerber Verlag 2017) leichte Lagerspuren/minor shelfwear
