Within the history of the German Informel the art of Gerhard Hoehme (1920-1989) occupies a very special position: although initially inspired by the French Tachisme Hoehme soon left the traditional flat canvas behind in order to protrude into space. Later he also incorporated language and history in his canvases that took on an increasingly spatial character. As one of a only a few artists of the Informel Hoehme also dealt with history, reflected the atrocities of World War II and the Nazi regime and also processed Paul Celan’s epochal work. In 1998 Hatje Cantz published Hoehme’s catalogue raisonné, a massive tome edited by Margarete Hoehme that with Gottfried Boehm’s texts also offers a very poetic account of the artist’s artistic development. Boehm chronologically follows Hoehme’s artistic development, fathoms his roots in French Tachisme and shows how the intense discussion of history and literature over time resulted in a unique oeuvre within German postwar art. By using everyday materials, scribbled lines and installative components on his shaped canvases Hoehme constantly reflected society, himself as a person and his own art, a modus operandi that also emphasized the in-between-ness of his art.
The present oeuvre catalogue is a beautifully designed and lavishly illustrated book that meticulously documents every work and every stage of Gerhard Hoehme's career that through Gottfried Boehm's emphatic writing rightly deserves the title of a reference work.
