   Why is Albert Oehlen a great artist?

The resulting paintings are so thoroughly and cleverly steeped in an aesthetic of excess and indulgence that the artist persuasively communicates a visual picture of breakdown.

   What is Oehlen best known for?

   • Oehlen is perhaps best known for his embrace of “bad” painting. Alongside his many rules, he allows a certain awkwardness or ugliness to enter his work, introducing unsettling gestures, crudely drawn figures, visceral smears of artificial pigments, bold hues, and flesh tones.

   What is Oehlen's 'abstand'?

   • Abstand, 2006, continues Oehlen’s iconoclastic motives, pitting techniques of painting advanced in the 1940s and 50s seemingly against one another. In the work, large tectonic areas of imagery and color are subverted by figurative and gestural elements noisily competing for compositional dominance.

   How does Oehlen explain his style?

   • Oehlen explains his style in this way: “Because we now refuse to deny the direct dependence and responsibility of art vis-à-vis reality, and on the other hand see no chance for art as we know it to have an effect, there is only one possibility left: failure.”

   What do Oehlen's paintings look like?

   • Often with self-consciously ugly color combinations and inscrutable, half-baked forms and decorative touches, Oehlen’s paintings have a seemingly deliberate resemblance to colorful wads of trash.
