In 1968, Lothar Wolleh embarked upon a project centered around the preeminent Dutch representative of the “Nul” group, Jan Schoonhoven. Schoonhoven garnered international acclaim for his white reliefs crafted from paper and cardboard. Wolleh held Schoonhoven’s work in high esteem, making regular visits to Delft to immerse himself in its artistic milieu. They both regarded each other as kindred spirits in the realm of artistry.

Wolleh captured the essence of the artist and his methodology, elucidating what rendered Delft captivating to Schoonhoven, and how the brickwork and cobblestones found their expression in Schoonhoven’s abstract drawings and reliefs.

After more than half a century, the Lothar Wolleh Estate unveils, for the first time, the artists’ book published by Waanders Uitgevers, a testament to their enduring collaboration and creative legacy.
