Rolf Winnewisser’s prolific oeuvre is presented in the form of an encyclopedia, echoing the rhizomelike structure of his work. Some 30 contributors discuss specific aspects of his life and work; the result is an overall view of the artist’s visual world with countless cross-references. The book, «Alphabet des Bildes», immerses readers in a profound and discerning semantic and semiotic universe. Early studies in the semantics of visual imagery, films, fragile objects, watercolor as a medium that runs like a red thread through his entire oeuvre, and painting with its expansive, almost baroque forms of expression – these all form a rich and varied whole, revealing the untold visual sources to which Winnewisser recurs and also the well-aimed integration of narrative elements.
