ISBN: 9780415107266 / Angielski / Twarda / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

German Expressionist Woodcuts
ISBN: 9780486280691 / Angielski / Miękka / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. German Expressionism was an extraordinarily vivid presence in the art of the early twentieth century, its violent colors and often distorted, stylized forms reflecting not only the rebellious spirit of its participants, but the revolutionary mood of the new century itself. One of the most popular media used by the German Expressionists was the woodcut, important in the history of German art from the time of Albrecht Durer (1471-1528), and especially suited to Expressionism's bold graphics.

We Weren't Modern Enough: Women Artists and the Limits of German Modernismvolume 25
ISBN: 9780520221345 / Angielski / Miękka / 263 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Marsha Meskimmon furnishes a fresh perspective on the art of women in the Weimar Republic and in the process reclaims the lost history of a number of artists who have not received adequate attention--not only because they were women but also because they continued to align themselves with the modes of realistic representation the Expressionists regarded as reactionary. Reconsidering the traditional definitions of German modernism and its central issues of race politics, eugenics, and the city, Meskimmon explores the structures that marginalized the work of little known artists such as Lotte...
