Born in Jersey City in 1948, Lasker focused on the dialectic relationship between perception of reality and reality itself, redefining the abstract painting of the past decades, of which he has been an undisputed protagonist. Introduction essay by curator Demetrio Paparoni, this monograph contains a wide range of works, a selection of writings by the artist and by critics (Joseph Masheck, Konrad Bitterli, David Carrier, Rainer Crone and David Moos, and Olivier Kaeppelin) as well as a formidable bio-bibliographical record.
