Janosch - Signed; DAS GROSSE Janosch BUCH - 1978

Welcome to certainly one of the highlights this year at Catawiki regarding "signed art books"; stemming on the one hand from the estate of Karl Geyer! An art collector from Jülich who, over almost 75 years, assembled about 100,000 drawings, autographs, art books and objects, and befriended many artists, such as Gerhard Richter, Otto Piene, Janosch, Günther Uecker and many others!
And on the other hand from my private collection, which I was able to accumulate over many years.

In this auction there are 100 hand-signed and partially even painted art and photography books by international artists, such as

- Gerhard Richter
- David Hockney
- Ellsworth Kelly
- Georg Baselitz
- Cornelia Schleime
- Wolfgang Tillmans
- Martin Eder
- Andreas Gursky
- Bridget Riley
- Wolfgang Mattheuer
- Bernhard Heisig
- Thomas Ruff
- Bernard Aubertin
- Anselm Kiefer
- Gunter Sachs
- Richard Long

and many more, with a starting minimum bid of EUR 100.00.

Don’t miss this extraordinary opportunity to obtain signed books by artists, some of whom are already deceased and possess legendary status!

Here we offer:
