Françoise Pétrovitch, born in 1964, is among the most distinguished contemporary artists in France. Her art reveals ambiguous, often transgressive worlds that play with conventional boundaries and defy interpretation. The intimate, the fragment, the disappearance, as well as themes such as doppelgängers, transition, and cruelty, run through her works, which are populated by animals, flowers, and creatures and whose atmosphere, alternately bright or nocturnal, rarely leaves a viewer untouched.Framed by the topic of absence, this volume features new and recent drawings, prints, and video art by Françoise Pétrovitch. Absence can be agonising, a tragedy. As counterpart to presence, it is characterised by longing and projection. It describes the passing of time, distance, and lack. Painting itself is also characterised by absence: the artist, the model, the landscape, or the past moment are not truly present.Richly illustrated and with essays on Pétrovitch’s art and the various techniques she uses, the book offers a deep look into the worlds she creates.Text in German and French.

In 2015, the Swiss Musée Jenisch Vevey received a bequest that also comprised around 2,000 Japanese coloured woodblock prints (ukiyo-e). Many of them originate from the workshops of the most famous artists of the Utagawa school, who were active between 1765 and 1930 and are rarely represented in European collections. They stand out due to their fine printing technique, the use of precious materials and vibrant colours, as well as their excellent state of preservation. The collection also includes some 350 sketches and final preparatory drawings pasted onto the block for printing (shita-e), which are usually destroyed during the printing process. They offer an impressive insight into the artists’ creative process before a final drawing is submitted to the printer for execution.Impressions of Japan features 200 ukiyo-e, shita-e, and sketches from the mid 19th to early 20th century. They depict kabuki theatre scenes, textile art, the joys and pleasures of Japanese society, famous fairy tales, travelling in and around the landscapes of Japan. Scholarly essays and an appendix offering explanations of printmaking techniques, types of paper used, and about printmaking in 21st-century Japan supplement the images. The beautifully designed book will appeal particularly to experts and lovers of coloured Japanese woodblock prints.
