Munch and Kirchner : anxiety and expression / by Morehead, Allison,author.(CARDINAL)350745; Spira, Freyda,author.(CARDINAL)336617; Yale University.Art Gallery,issuing body,host institution.(CARDINAL)147600;
Includes bibliographical references.A conversation between the collectors -- Munch and Kirchner / Freyda Spira -- The asylum shadows of Munch and Kirchner / Allison Morehead -- Plates."The Norwegian artist Edvard Munch (1863-1944) and the German artist Ernst Ludwig Kirchner (1880-1938) were avid draftsmen and printmakers who exploited the perceptual and emotional power of color for creative expression and portrayed what they perceived to be a fragmented and harrowing reality. A generation apart, they are considered modernist visionaries whose mental illness-both artists endured bouts of depression, substance abuse, and psychiatric hospitalizations-fueled their creative genius. Exploring how Munch and Kirchner depicted their shared traumatic experiences of both personal and societal anxiety, this study also looks at the ways in which the widespread nationalism and perceived moral decay throughout Europe in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century paralleled a widespread interest in the recognition and treatment of mental illness and the development of psychoanalytic practice. Featuring never-before-published prints from the Nelson Blitz and Catherine Woodard collection, as well as etchings, lithographs, and hand-colored woodcuts from select museum collections across the United States, this volume puts these two transformative artists in a dialogue that foregrounds issues of mental health and offers a new and intriguing approach that blends art history with a history of medical treatment and illuminates new aspects of the artists' works"--
