An artist unbound by the conventions of his time, Munich-based painter Peter Schermuly (1997 2007) turned away from abstraction toward an original approach to realism in which he developed color phenomena suitable for a particular painting rather than merely recreating the palette he observed in the world around him. "Peter Schermuly: Catalogue Raisonne" brings together a wealth of full-color illustrations to present an overview of the artist s entire painterly oeuvre. The book includes Schermuly s well-known oil paintings but also his sketches and wall designs. Together, the works form a long-awaited introduction to the life and work of this important and original figure in twentieth-century art.".
