The American artist Sherrie Levine realises in her works the
artistic praxis of appropriating, repeating and varying famous
earlier artworks. At the same time in doing so she creates her own
new oeuvre. Beyond the mere copy she further develops the works c
onceptually and with historical clichés, presenting it to the
viewer for reconsideration. Sherrie Levine (* 1947) is a
photographer, painter and sculptor and is celebrated above all in
the United States. When we fi rst consider her works we think of
the im itation and interpretation of the reference works, but our
conclusions about the copy soon disappear in favour of a new,
autonomous original. The volume shows over 50 works “after”
artists like Duchamp, Cézanne, Degas, van Gogh and Mondrian, from
whose mas terpieces Sherrie Levine has created something new. In
addition art experts place her work in context, for example with
regard to her choice of subject or her methods of reproduction.
