Summary

Flowers & Mushrooms' is the new and improved release of the previously published artist's book from 1999. Bursting with luscious color and consisting of multiple superimposed images these photographs by Peter Fischli and David Weiss navigate the fine line between beauty and kitsch. From 1997 - 98, the artists spent countless hours documenting gardens and mushroom patches, thoughtfully crafting intoxicating compositions.
