Hans-Peter Feldmann

Hilden, Düsseldorf, 1941 – 2023

Hans-Peter Feldmann was an internationally renowned artist whose work focuses on the accumulation of repertoires of images taken from anonymous sources or taken by himself. In showing the omnipresence of reproduction in the world around us, Hans-Peter Feldmann theorizes in his work the concept of the “missing original”: it is the multiplicity of reproductions that gives the original its value and not the other way around.
