Lütte mit Rucola, 2011 - artist book/heart - Bock, John - hand signed
Bock, John
"Lütte mit Rucola" is based on the film of the same name by John Bock. It is about a psychotic man searching for existential orientation, which he hopes to achieve by torturing another person. With crazy experimental arrangements on the human body and the little girl Lütte as a medium, he believes he can find the right answers. The book, with its thick cardboard pages, is designed in the style of an untearable children's book and contains a hand-knitted red heart in a recessed chamber - like a revolver in the Bible.
