Inhaltsangabe

Rethinking Art from the Inside Out

The Austrian artist Maria Lassnig (b. Kappel am Krappfeld, 1919; d. Vienna, 2014) and the Norwegian painter Edvard Munch (b. Løten, 1863; d. Ekely, Oslo, 1944) were equals in the radical and unsparing scrutiny of their own selves. Each also had a ­singular way of handling paint as a means of their art and powerful medium for expression of emotions like grief, love, loneliness, trepidation, joy, pain, or also for physical levels of perception. The richly illustrated volume accompanies the grand double exhibition of these two exceptional artists’ oeuvres. Released on occasion of the exhibitions at Hamburger Kunsthalle and Kunsthaus Zürich, it presents intimate insights into the artists’ works, highlighting parallels as well as differences between what are arguably two of the most celebrated oeuvres in more recent art history. With writings by Andreas Eriksson, ­Sandra Gianfreda, Sheela Gowda, Johanna Hornauer, Hans Dieter Huber, Siri Hustvedt, ­Brigitte Kölle, Maria Lassnig, Edvard Munch, Johanna Ortner, Ulrike Ottinger, Ashley Hans Scheirl, Luc Tuymans, and others.
