✦内容简介——

发人深省的艺术家 Volker Hermess 所著的《隐藏的肖像》书籍

精美的当代艺术收藏通过社交媒体走向全球

由学者蒂尔-霍尔格·博切特 (Till-Holger Borchert) 和弗朗西斯卡·雷蒙迪 (Francesca Raimondi) 教授发表评论

用非常现代的视角重新解读历史特权

Volker Hermes 的作品曾被纽约大都会博物馆和佳士得拍卖行展出，其作品还曾在波兰弗罗茨瓦夫国家博物馆、伦敦詹姆斯·弗里曼画廊、罗马梅鲁拉纳宫博物馆和汉堡布劳宁当代艺术画廊展出。

《沃尔克·赫尔墨斯：隐藏的肖像》汇集了当代迷人的艺术家的精髓作品，以非常现代的方式重新诠释了历史特权。

沃尔克·赫尔墨斯仅使用原画的元素，巧妙地修改了历史肖像的照片，以掩盖人物的面孔。由于每个人物都隐藏在自己的礼服之下，这些曾经的精英在装饰和配饰的簇拥中很快失去了个性。

在这个官方系列中，赫尔墨斯以紧凑的意象、强烈的专注和恰如其分的幽默感表达了他对财富、名望和社会地位的讽刺评论。他再现的作品伴随着德国艺术史学家蒂尔-霍尔格·博尔歇特和柏林哲学研究所的弗朗西斯卡·雷蒙迪教授以及艺术家本人的想法。这是

一位数字创作者对古典肖像画的修订版。

“赫尔墨斯精心描绘的拼贴画在向其来源致敬的同时，也温和地嘲讽了宫廷阶层的社会自负和野心。” ——克里斯托弗·亚历山德里尼

The essential book of Hidden Portraits by thought-provoking artist Volker Hermess

Beautiful collection of contemporary art gone global through social media

Featuring commentary by leading academics Till-Holger Borchert and Professor Francesca Raimondi

A must-have reinterpretation of historical privilege through a very modern lens

Volker Hermes was featured by the Metropolitan Museum and Christie’s in New York, and has shown his work at the National Museum in Wroclaw, Poland; the James Freeman Gallery in London; Museum Palazzo Merulana in Rome; and the Galerie Bräuning Contemporary in Hamburg

Volker Hermes: Hidden Portraits gathers the essential works by one of the most beguiling artists of the present era, in a very modern reinterpretation of historical privilege.

Using only elements of the original paintings, Volker Hermes masterfully alters photos of historical portraits to mask the faces of their subjects. With each figure concealed under their own ceremonial attire, these one-time elites quickly lose their individuality in a plume of decorations and accessories.

In this official collection, Hermes delivers his wry commentary on wealth, fame and social status with taut imagery, intense focus and a suitably shrewd sense of humour. His immaculately reproduced artworks are accompanied by the thoughts of German art historian Till-Holger Borchert and Professor Francesca Raimondi of Berlin’s Institute for Philosophy, as well as the artist himself.

A must-have revision of classical portraiture from a celebrated digital creator.

"Hermes’s meticulously described collages pay homage to their sources while gently ribbing the social pretensions and ambitions of the courtly classes." – Christopher Alessandrini, metmuseum.org
