A classic of modernism - a new Feininger

retrospective in the light of current knowledge

Lyonel Feininger (1871-1956) was a

painter, graphic artist and caricaturist.

From 1919 he served as one of the

original masters at the Bauhaus in

Weimar and later in Dessau. In 1937 he

emigrated to New York, where he

worked until the end of his life. In

addition to his famous Expressionist

images of architecture, the publication

presents all the facets of his oeuvre

and stations of his life based on the

latest research.

With some 140 paintings, drawings, caricatures, watercolours, woodcuts, photographs and objects from all creative phases, the volume presents a comprehensive picture of Feininger's work which is also examined for its topicality. Lines of development and subjects which characterised his work are discussed in detail by means of key works in contributions by international authors. In particular his early paintings are evaluated, alongside the latest research into the significance of photography in the creative work of the Bauhaus artist.
