Focusing on his prints, this generously illustrated book offers a thematic re~consideration of the artist's oeuvre. It highlights Toulouse~Lautrec's keenly perceptive gaze as he explored a variety of settings~circuses, brothels, cafés, and dancehalls~and subjects of both genders and all classes in his work. A radical in his own radical time, he emerges as a consummate bohemian artist who depicted his contemporaries' appetite for visual and sensual pleasure. In contrast to the chronologically ordered exhibitions of the past, the present exhibition approaches Lautrec's work from an overall thematic angle which shows a wide selection of Lautrec's graphic work while focusing on the city, its bodies, and how it stages gender and identity. The Gallery's own collection has been supplemente by selected works from the Kupferstichkabinett in Berlin, Nationalmuseum in Stockholm, and Malmö Konstmuseum. all of whom deserve great thanks. Special thanks are also due to the Designmuseum Danmark, which houses the best preserved complete collection of Lautrec's posters in the world, some of them in several stages and conditions, and many of these have been placed at the disposal of the exhibition.…
