Item description from seller

The first, massive catalogue raisonne for Niklavs Strunke (1894-1966), one of the most talent and prolific artists who was an essential element in the avant-garde group in Riga from 1918-1929. He was a painter, graphic designer, designer for the theater and costume designer decorative artist, and ubiquitous presence in the art world in Latvia until he emigrated to Sweden in 1944. Consisting of hundreds of plates and photographs documenting the life of this important Latvian artist, the work includes essays weighing over 9 lbs. Extensive essays by Aija Braslina, Ilze Martinsone, Edite Tisheizere, and Valdis Villeruss explore the artist's life and place in 20th century Latvia, and his extensive work in his travels to the Mediterranean and presence in Sweden. A good deal of the text is provided in English translation. Strunke is an important artist whose contribution to modern art is not to be missed. Weight of book 9.5 lbs.
