Kirchner x Kirchner, Gebunden

Klappentext

The publication presents an innovative new perspective on a star of Classical modernism. Ernst Ludwig Kirchner's art is characterised by austere beauty and bold colouration. However, his creative approach extended far beyond the canvas: he saw the presentation and viewing of his works as integral elements of his art. This book shows Kirchner's complete oeuvre through his own eyes.

Fresh and unexpected - a must for all Kirchner fans. The world's first major retrospective of Kirchner's (1880-1938) work was curated by the artist himself in 1933. In presenting the works, he created an exhibition entirely according to his own taste. This volume allows us to look over his shoulder once again and see how he approached both his artistic ideas and his curatorial strategies. Kirchner's work continues to be an exemplar of early-twentiethcentury art and one of the undisputed highlights of Classical Modernism.
