Donald Baechler
Biography
Donald Baechler's creative process begins amidst a vast collection of popular images and objects, the archives of years of photographing, looking and gathering. His paintings are condensed versions of that cumulative process, built-in fragments and layers to create what he calls an "illusion of history." The artist (born 1956) has had recent solo exhibitions at Cheim & Read, NY, The Kunsthalle Basel, and The Museum der Moderne Salzburg. Baechler’s work is in the collections of The Museum of Modern Art, The Whitney Museum of American Art, The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, The Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles and The Centre George Pompidou, Paris among other institutions worldwide.
