Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Illustrated by Max Beckmann (illustrator). Cover is white with red lettering on front and spine. Pages are clean and tight. Lavishly illustrated with 47 color and 24 b/w pictures by Beckmann. Beckmann wa born in Leipzig, Germany in 1884 and died in New York City in 1950. During his lifetime his style evolved from the impressionism of his peers to his own, singularly symbolic, rich and savagely acute style. He witnessed both World Wars, and his paintings reflect this, both as a victim and as a witness; during WWI he volunteered as a medical orderly, seeing the bloody horrors of war at first hand. Lackner, a friend and patron of Beckmann's, chose these 71 works from 835 oil paintings, drawings, prints and watercolors, to chronicle and represent Beckmann's life, from his early days, through the ever changing path of his life, up until his death in the US in the mid-20th century.

Er selber hat sich keiner Gruppe anschließen mögen. In der Thematik seiner Malerei verfügt er wohl über den weitesten Spielraum unter allen Künstlern des 20. Jahrhunderts: er hat Porträts, lyrische Landschaften und Stilleben, erschreckende und liebenswerte Figurenbilder geschaffen. Tragik und Neckerei, Liebe und Folterqual, Aggression und Harmonie standen seinem Pinsel zur Verfügung. 1884 in Leipzig geboren und 1950 in New York gestorben, war er mitleidender Zeitgenosse gewaltiger Katastrophen und Neubildungen auf diesem Planeten. STEPHAN LACKNER, der Verfasser dieses Buches, war ein langjähriger Freund Beckmanns, Er hat in mehreren Büchern und vielen Artikeln seine Kunst analysiert und gewürdigt; Beckmann selbst hat 1938 ein Drama von Lackner illustriert. Lackners ?Die friedfertige Natur" erschien 1982 in München. gutes Exemplar, ordentlich * Verlag: Bindlach : Gondrom.

Hardcover. Condition: Used - Good. Max Beckmann (1884-1950) left his native Germany in 1937, the day after the Nazis opened their infamous 'Degenerate Art' exhibition, in which as many as 20 of the artist's works were shown. Never to return home, he spent 10 productive years in Amsterdam before leaving for the United States, where he went on to create some of the most powerful works of his career. The catalogue to an exhibition of Beckmann's work on view from October 9, 1996 to January 5, 1997, at the Guggenheim Museum SoHo -- the first at an American museum in over a decade -- this book explores, in essays and color reproductions, the artist's fruitful years in exile. Art historian Barbara Stehle-Akhtar discusses the critical reception of Beckmann's work in the United States and its stylistic development during this period. Scholar Reinhard Spieler probes Beckmann's nine completed triptychs, his sweeping masterpieces that express both the mood of the times and the artist's own worldview. Fellow emigre Stephan Lackner provides a reminiscence of his friendship with and support of Beckmann. Completing the volume are a personal interpretation by contemporary artist Eric Fischl of Beckmann's first trip-tych, Departure, as well as writings by Beckmann that eloquently convey his thoughts on aesthetics and creativity. Book has mild shelf wear and faint tanning at edges. Overall book is neat with crisp pages and a tight binding.
