Karl Gerstner hat als visueller Gestalter ein Doppelleben geführt: als Grafikdesigner in fremdem und als Künstler in eigenem Auftrag. Im Bereich des Konstruktiven ist Gerstners Werk einzigartig. Nie hat er Bilder im üblichen Sinne entworfen, sondern Algorithmen, das heißt Operatoren, aus denen sich - sozusagen selbstständig - stets weitere Möglichkeiten entwickelten. Eugen Gomringer nennt ihn »den vielleicht umfassendsten Systematiker der heutigen Kunst.« Nach Gerstners Analyse von Marcel Duchamps letztem Gemälde Tu m' und seinem Rückblick auf 5 x 10 Jahre Graphik Design etc. erscheint nun bei Hatje Cantz ein Rückblick auf sieben Kapitel konstruktive Bilder. Etc. In Einzelkapiteln zeigt und beschreibt Gerstner je eine Bilderfindung und spannt damit einen Bogen über seine nunmehr 50-jährige Tätigkeit als freier Künstler - beginnend mit den frühen »seriellen Bildern« der fünfziger Jahre, Partizipationsobjekte, die den Betrachter als Mitgestalter einbeziehen, über die »color forms«, die auf der Basis eines von Gerstner entwickelten Farben-Formen-Modells entstanden sind, bis hin zu jüngsten Arbeiten, in denen Gerstner Grundprinzipien der fraktalen Geometrie in Bilder umsetzt. (Englische Ausgabe ISBN 978-3-7757-9151-9) Zum Künstler: Karl Gerstner, *1930 in Basel, hat als Grafikdesigner wie als Künstler internationale Anerkennung gefunden. Zahlreiche Einzel- und Gruppenausstellungen im In- und Ausland, darunter 1964 und 1968 Teilnahme an der documenta in Kassel, 1986 an der Biennale Venedig. Ausstellung: Haus Konstruktiv, Zürich 9.11.2003-22.2.2004

Great product! 🧴
Size: 8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Size: 8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I must admit that this is my go to alternative cleanser to La Roche Posay and Bioderma but that is by no means to suggest that it is ineffective. Quite the opposite! This is one of the most gentle, fragrance free cleansers out there, and it truly delivers on its promises: removing makeup and hydrating the skin. It is suitable for sensitive skin and those with rosacea! An excellent product offering great value for money!

A little drying, but effective at reducing white heads and build up -- will keep using!
Size: 8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I have very delicate skin that is prone to acne and eczema. I also have a lot of allergies that prevent me from using most skin products so I was pretty nervous about trying a new one, but I gave it a chance. The first couple of days I noticed some itchiness in my skin, but it was effectively clearing dead skin and reducing whiteheads so I kept using it and the itching went away. My skin does feel a bit dry after using it, and it probably would be better alongside the vanicream moisturizer; however, I try to only start new products one at a time so that I can easily pin point things that may be bothering me. As far as pricing, I think it's pretty affordable considering it comes in a fairly large bottle and you only have to use a pea-sized amount each wash. It also doesn't leave any weird films or grease, and doesn't seem to have any weird smells. Altogether, really like the product over the week or two that I have been using it, and my skin looks a lot cleaner and more evenly textured.

Best cleanser I’ve ever had!
Size: 2.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This is absolutely the best cleanser I’ve ever had. My skin is dry and sensitive, and very reactive, so I’ve always had a hard time finding good products. But this cleanser is honestly the best. It’s never broken me out, doesn’t dry out my skin, and leaves it feeling so soft. It isn’t greasy at all, and it’s completely unscented, which I love. Super effective and lightweight, washes off easily, and good enough to use day and night if you want. I use this daily, and it’s honestly great. Will be repurchasing once I’m done mine!

Works Great, Fragrance-Free & Lathers Well
Size: 2.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I recently became highly allergic to all artificial fragrances and beeswax so this Sensitive Skin Vanicream Gentle Facial Cleanser was recommended by my dermatologist. I tried a few other brands, and this one is my favorite by far. It lathers well, is not greasy, and leaves my skin feeling soft and clean. I like to use the 8 oz bottle size with the pump at my sink and in my shower, but this 2.5 oz size was perfect for 2 weeks in Europe, and I still have a lot left with using it twice a day. Also, it doesn't burn my eyes, so I would say it is safe for taking off eye make up. Highly recommend!

A total lifesaver for seb derm!
Size: 8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I honestly don’t know what my husband would do without this cleanser. He struggles with seborrheic dermatitis, and finding something that doesn’t trigger a flare-up is usually a nightmare, but this stuff is absolute gold. It’s so gentle on his skin, no fragrance or weird oily texture and the fact that it’s less than $10 is honestly a steal for the amount you get in a bottle. We’ve repurchased multiple bottles at this point because it’s a total staple in his routine now. He has tried EVERYTHING even prescribed stuff from the dermatologist but nothing worked until we found this. It’s also super easy to dispense and use with the pump, so there’s no mess or hassle. If you're looking for something that actually works for sensitive skin without breaking the bank, just get it!
