A.R. Penck "Be Cool in Munich. Live Concert (part II)" LP privately issued by the artist (17) in Germany, 1985. ****** Rec:m- / Cov:m- (still in shrink) ****** Possibly the best of all the "Be Cool In Munich" LP series, including legendary Frank Lowe. "Be Cool In Munich" Volume 2 is a rare Free Jazz LP with original cover art by German artist A.R. Penck. Pressedn in very limited quantities and with very small to no distribution at all in the 1980s. Featuring Frank Lowe (sax), Butch Morris (cornet), Billy Bang (violin, drums), Heinz Wollny (bass), Frank Wollny (guitar, bass), A.R. Penck (piano, drums), Dennis Charles (drums). Born as Ralph Winkler in 1939, the young A.R. Penck was strongly shocked by the bombing of Dresden and the almost total destruction of his city. From 1961 on, he started painting some Weltbilder (Pictures of the World) haunted by images of cavemen. In 1969, he took the fictitious name of A.R. Penck (borrowed from the geographer Albrecht Penck originating from Dresden, glaciation specialist). He finalized a pictorial language composed of elementary signs and symbols. In 1970, he defined in his publications the concept Standart ("a picture one can perceive and imitate"), to clarify the philosophical meaning of his iconography. Then he started painting black and white canvases filled with entangled hieroglyphs. In 1973, under the name of Mike Hammer, he realized some more abstract gestural series in black and white. At the beginning of the eighties, after the dismissal of his East German nationality, he chose the exile and became one of the key figures of the Neo-Expressionism. He went then back to his archetypal characters in very big formats and in colorful canvases. Penck currently lives and works in Berlin, Hamburg and Dublin. ****** The records still in its original shrink.
