ISBN-13: 978-0-300-16595-1, ISBN: 0-300-16595-1

"An American sculptor, painter, and installation artist, Paul Thek (1933--1988) is primarily known for hyper-realistic works of human body parts executed in fleshlike beeswax and for his strongly symbolic, room-size installations constructed from transitory materials. A major figure on the 1960s New York art scene, Thek also spent time in Europe, where he paved the way for artists adopting collaborative strategies. Although he gained a l ..."

Paul Thek(1st Edition)
Artist's Artist
by Harald Falckenberg, Peter Weibel, Paul Thek, Paul Weibel
Hardcover, 550 Pages, Published 2009 by The Mit Press
ISBN-13: 978-0-262-01254-6, ISBN: 0-262-01254-5

"Paul Thek occupied a place between high art and low art, between the epic and the everyday. During his brief life (1933-1988), he went against the grain of art world trends, humanizing the institutional spaces of art with the force of his humor, spirituality, and character. Twenty years after Thek's death from AIDS, we can now recognize his influence on contemporary artists ..."






Dead Flowers
by Gary Indiana, Antony Hegarty, Max G. Morton, Timothy Carey, Charles Atlas, Alvin Baltrop, Paul Thek, Vaginal Davis, Eileen Myles, Ed Halter, Bruce Labruce, Lia Gangitano
Paperback, 260 Pages, Published 2011 by Vox Populi/Participant Press
ISBN-13: 978-0-9802324-2-4, ISBN: 0-9802324-2-2

"Based on the work of director and cult legend Timothy Carey (1929-1994), Dead Flowers features new scholarship on this brilliant actor and filmmaker. Carey wrote, produced, directed and starred in the 1962 feature The World's Greatest Sinner, which was scored by Frank Zappa. Although the film did not have wide commercial release, it built its fervent fan base through repeated screenings at the “midnight movies” in Los Angeles in the 196 ..."

Paul Thek
From Cross to Crib (English and German Edition)
by Franz Deckwitz, Reinhard Voigt, Raimund Stecker, Marietta Franke, Paul Thek Ll., Bernd Kirtz, Not Available, Lehmbruck Museum Duisburg, Michael Krajewski, Paul Thek
Paperback, 180 Pages, Published 2015 by Walther König, Köln
ISBN-13: 978-3-86335-335-3, ISBN: 3-86335-335-8

"This publication documents a little-known temporary artwork. In the winter of 1973/74, Paul Thek (1933–1988) was a guest of the Lehmbruck Museum in Duisburg, where he installed the room-filling environment "Ark, Pyramid – Christmas" ("The Manger")--a development of the legendary "Pyramid" installation realized at Documenta 5 in 1972. This exhibition, organized by the director of the museum at the time, Siegfried Salzmann, was the fourth ..."

Tales the Tortoise Taught Us (Future of the Past)

Paperback, 156 Pages, Published 2009 by Walther König, Köln
ISBN-13: 978-3-86560-617-4, ISBN: 3-86560-617-2

"There are some artists who are never forgotten simply because other artists will constantly cite them as examples. Paul Thek (1933-1988) is one such artist. Revered for his disarming humor and irreverent handling of artworld proprieties, and much lamented for his premature death from AIDS at the age of 55, the likes of Vito Acconci, Bruce Nauman, Mike Kelley, John Miller, Paul McCarthy, Kim Gordon and Matthew Barney have all sung his pr ..."

Tales the Tortoise Taught Us
by Margrit Brehm, Axel Heil, Roberto Ohrt, Paul Thek, Koln Walther Konig, Margrit Franziska Brehm
Paperback, 156 Pages, Published 1899 by Walther Konig, Koln
ISBN-13: 978-3-86560-390-6, ISBN: 3-86560-390-4

"This study of the American-born cult artist Paul Thek presents works from 1963 to 1988 alongside essays, documentary images and a narrative biography. After confronting Conceptualism and Minimalism in his New York work of the 1960s, Thek pioneered large-scale spatial installation in Europe in the 1970s. Deeply distrustful of and even repulsed by the entrenched hierarchies and orthodoxies of the international art world and ambivalent abo ..."

ISBN-13: 978-3-03764-253-5, ISBN: 3-03764-253-X

"In 1971, Harald Szeemann invited the American sculptor and installation pioneer Paul Thek to contribute to Documenta 5. Szeemann had named one section of the Documenta "Individual Mythologies," describing a new kind of art structured around a mythology invented by individual artists, rather than by a culture. Thek's contribution--the now legendary "Pyramid" installation--came to be seen as the supreme example of Individual Mythology, an ..."
