For more than four decades, Austrian abstractionist Helmut Federle (born 1944) has created an oeuvre that balances geometric construction with painterly gesture. Revisiting the controversy surrounding the Kunstmuseum Basel's 1982 acquisition of his Asian Sign painting, this book presents six paintings made between 1980 and 2005, plus works on paper and ceramics from the artist's collection.

The minimalist paintings of Swiss artist Helmut Federle (born 1944) are inflected with a strong spiritual character. American Songline focuses on his lesser known, more freely rendered paintings and drawings, discussed in a series of critical essays by renowned authors and interspersed with poems chosen by the artist.
