Author: Inge Herold, Johan Holten (eds.)
Art, body, (self-)perception - a focused, concentrated introduction to the work and biography of three 20th century women artists. Nan Hoover, Anneliese Hager and Maria Lassnig are women artists who expressed themselves experimentally and innovatively in various media. They were interested in alienation effects, body perception, and reflections about time and space. All three explored Surrealism early on and found their own individual visual language in different ways.While American Hoover was one of the pioneers of international light, video and performance art and produced a surprising painterly early oeuvre close to pop art, Hager, who is one of the most interesting female photographers of the 20th century, remains very little known. Today, Austrian painter Lassnig is one of the most important female artists of the 20th century, but she only achieved her international breakthrough late in the 1980s. This publication, three books in one, enables readers to rediscover the three artists, or even discover them for the first time. With contributions by Inge Herold, Lynette Roth, Christina Bergemann
ISBN 9783422801738. Deutscher Kunstverlag. hb. three books in one. 64 pages each. 108 colour ills. 23.7 x 16.5 cm.
