Artist book with 21 double-sided, single-coloured original linocuts by HAGEL, partially hand-coloured. Instead of grotesque installations or scary paintings you find 21 coloured linocuts. But the impression seems familiar - from absurdities to creeps, from magical to bizarre, witticism or lunacy - that is the ABC of HAGEL range of expression. The graphical insight in the variety of motives and metaphors of the two artists exercises an attraction you can‘t resist. At the same time the sense comes over you that between fascination and fear you entered a wonder-world that belongs to a more complex story.
