In his paintings, Heiner Meyer draws on both the trivial world of comics and the dazzling world of elite consumerism. Contemporary style icons dominate his panoramic images just as much as those from the Hollywood dream factory. In his compositions, Meyer uses a sophisticated interplay of visual quotations and references that seem to merge seamlessly, yet still adhere to the rules of classical image composition. Visual quotations and independent image elements merge into a new unity, but often in such a pointedly exaggerated way that everything tips over into obvious irony.
The comprehensive publication offers a detailed insight into Heiner Meyer's work on almost 400 pages and presents numerous sculptural works in addition to paintings.
