There is no divide between “great painter” and “professional lunatic”; the self-mythology is treated as part of the artistic project rather than an embarrassing annex to it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeavily illustrated throughout in colour, with reproductions, drawings and documentary material, this is a strong visual introduction to one of the twentieth century’s strangest and most technically accomplished image-makers. The volume forms part of Taschen’s larger-format art monograph series; this edition runs to 96 pages and measures roughly 25 × 31 cm. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTaschen, Cologne, 2013.
