Summary:
The Kunsthalle Bremen ventures a new look at one of the most famous yet controversial artists of the twentieth century: Friedensreich Hundertwasser (1928-2000). With his search for new spheres of brilliant colors, this mastermind of visionary art forms explored new realms in the fifties and sixties. In this catalogue, scholarly texts covering such subjects as the spiral motif, action art, and the artist's relationship to Japan and the Parisian and Viennese art scenes of the fifties and sixties open up new perspectives onto Hundertwasser's fascinating oeuvre. The opulent volume features an impressive selection of lesser-known works from the artist's early phases along with classic masterpieces. This informative publication presents Hundertwasser as an important member of the international avant-garde and takes the reader back to the roots of this exceptional artist. Exhibition: Kunsthalle Bremen, Germany (20.10.2012-17.2.2013).
