Ernst Ludwig Kirchner - the sketchbooks
The small format oilcloth booklets that Ernst Ludwig Kirchner fills throughout his life, page for page with pencil, crayon, chalk, Ink, watercolor paints or charcoal, were for him, who didn't spend a day without a sketchbook, drawn diaries, documentation, and experiment room. The masterly talent of the painter for drawing is revealed in them. With a few precise strokes he could capture whole sceneries. Kirchner recorded everything his artistic eye appealed to him for painting and sometimes animated to write. The inconspicuous black booklets form their own and unique genre in Ernst Ludwig Kirchner's oeuvre and are among the most important original documents for art historical research. For the very first time, they were published within the publication for the exhibition "Kirchner's Sketchbook. From Pencil Stroke To Hologram" in Kirchner Museum Davos. The sketchbooks show, which like no other genre, motive groups occupied Kirchner throughout his life and how he got his stylistic development from the street scenes to the New Style in thousands of sketches worked out. Based on their studies, it is possible tracing genesis from draft to finished painting.
Gert & Uwe Tobias
A catalog from the uber-hip GEM Museum of Contemporary Art in The Hague reveals the latest work by the increasingly important twin brother team of Gert and Uwe Tobias. In their virtuoso style, the pair of Cologne-based artists has opened a new chapter in their creative oeuvre: huge 81-by-68-inch works that pay homage to the ancient still-life tradition. These monumental, woodblock-based works, which also combine gouache and collage, are also shown here in eye-popping installation photos. The brothers create a contemporary Cabinet of Curiosities, juxtaposing classical themes like flora, fauna or food with surreal, jarringly bright colors. In barely a decade of work, the Tobias brothers have become major artists, represented in all important collections; here's a perfectly presented sample of their freshest, most provocative work.
