Description: ed. Christian-Schad-Stiftung Aschaffenburg. Köln: Wienand, 2012. 31cm., hardcover, 256pp. illus. English text. Summary: Christian Schad (1894–1982) was one of the most important artists associated with the New Objectivity. Realistic to the point of exaggeration, his portraits of the 1920s to 1940s are world famous and continue to influence a variety of art genres to this day. The first complete catalogue raisonné is being assembled in collaboration with the Christian Schad Foundation. This second volume is dedicated to Christian Schad’s photographs, which were taken in 1934/35 and about whose existence little was known until now. Photographs of Berlin, portraits and landscapes, as well as abstract motifs are presented here for the first time. The accompanying texts discuss such topics as the relationship between the New Objectivity and photography, Schad’s artistic approach as a photographer, and the use of photographs in the painting of his famous portraits, as well as in his later “Schadographs”. These will be the subject of the third volume of the catalogue raisonné.
