Description

"Ernst Ludwig Kirchner (1880-1938) dazzled prewar Germany with his electrifying color palette and impassioned, jagged brushwork. Kirchner depicted Berlin and the majestic mountainscapes of Davos with an intensity never before seen in German art, and when we think of his paintings it is this sense of expressive force that first comes to mind (after all, Kirchner's Die Brücke group made their name with the declaration that they would express "what urges them to create, directly and without adulteration"). It is perhaps for this reason that Kirchner is more rarely considered as the careful technician he was. Kirchner's Paintings: No One Else Has These Colors provides the first treatment of the artist's working process, his methods and techniques, with evaluations of his comments on color schemes and painting techniques and scientific analyses of individual works."--Publisher description.
