Published to accompany a major retrospective exhibition and including 67 paintings, 12 sculptures and more than 60 drawings, Karel Appel: Retrospective demonstrates that Dutch artist Karel Appel (1921-2006) was much more than just a member of the avant-garde Cobra group, and more than the flamboyant personal image he cultivated. "I'm tackling two clich�s," Franz Kaiser, the exhibition's curator, told The New York Times .
