Item Number: 120322 Title: ERNST WILHELM NAY : Werkverzeichnis der Aquarelle, Gouachen und Zeichnungen, Band 2 : 1949-1953 Author: Claesges, Magdalena (ed) Price: Not Available ISBN: 9783775734127 Description: Stuttgart: Hatje Cantz, 2014. 32cm., hardcover, slipcase, 464pp., 1136 color illus. German text. Summary: The long-awaited, three-volume catalogue raisonné of works on paper by E. W. Nay (1902–1968) offers a definitive overview of this German painter’s oeuvre that will appeal to art historians, art dealers, and art lovers alike. Comprehensive and indepth, the publication brings new insights and understandings to the work of this important figure in twentieth-century abstraction. With more than six thousand watercolors, gouaches, and drawings, Nay’s works on paper far outnumber his oil paintings. He was a restless creator who consistently put his ideas about form and color onto paper. These works embody a kind of working “journal” that reveals surprising aspects of his artistic method. Documenting the processes behind his artistic activities and research, Nay’s works on paper are also autonomous creations that impressively chronicle the artist’s development and vision.
