Item Number: 129699 Title: Von Liebermann bis Nolde : Impressionismus in Deutschland auf Papier Author: Luckhardt, Ulrich Price: Not Available ISBN: 9783775738156 Description: Stuttgart: Hatje Cantz, 2014. 31cm., hardcover, ca. 240pp., 200 illus. Exhibitino held at Altes Rathaus, Ingelheim am Rhein. German text. Summary: German Impressionism is usually discussed in connection with its French prototype and based on paintings by Max Liebermann, Lovis Corinth, and Max Slevogt. Yet it is precisely in the often lesser-acknowledged genre of works on paper—for instance in the spontaneous and direct portrayal of landscapes—that the widespread impact and groundbreaking role of Impressionism becomes palpable for the development of Modernism in Germany. On the basis of 150 wonderful works, the volume demonstrates how the triumph over Naturalism in the academies and a shift toward abstraction introduced unfettered artistic expression in drawing, watercolor, gouache, pastel, and prints. Alongside Liebermann, Corinth, and Slevogt, the book includes important works from 1880 to 1925 by Lesser Ury, Maria Slavona, Anna Gerresheim, Otto Modersohn, Christian Rohlfs, and Arthur Illies as well as by the photographer Heinrich Kühn.
