Rainer Fetting

In addition to sensual appetency, Rainer Fetting's paintings of men testify to a high degree of compositional reflection. The works, produced between 1974 and 2010, encompass different facets of male eroticism and identity: the classic nude, the bathing boy, or the man in drag. With essays by Travis Jeppesen and Thomas Wagner as well as 65 colour illustrations, this volume pays tribute not only to the subject of male images, but to Fetting's extremely extensive œuvre. Published to accomapny the exhibition at Kunsthalle Tübingen, 2 October – 5 December 2010. English and German text.
