Michel Frère was undeniably one of the greatest painters of his generation. His desire to break free from the terrorism of minimalism and conceptualism is evident in his work, his thought and his life. This sumptuous publication, with its interviews, reminiscences, colour plates and private photographs is testimony to Frère as an artist and a friend. Texts by Pierre Sterckx, Michel Baudson, Richard Millazo, Stefan Libersk and Albert Baronian. Born in Brussels in 1961, Michel Frère lived and worked in New York City until his death in 1999. Solo exhibitions include Pamela Auchincloss and Sidney Janis (New York) and Ian Turner (Los Angeles).
