Author's print by Josef Liesler whose oeuvre was inspired mainly by surrealism. He himself called his work “fantastic reality”, bringing together fantastic ideas and recollections, contemporary issues and historical memory. He painted apocalyptic images of monsters and phantoms, machines and conjoined people, beasts and mutants that threaten humankind. In his works from the 1970s, his distinctive style displays the artist's lighthanded improvisation and exceptional industriousness.
