T. Lux Feininger. Modern Romanticism
Visionary, dreamer, romantic, Bauhaus artist: a multifaceted career collected in one volume
The astonishing work of T. Lux Feininger (1910–2011) – from aquatic worlds to the cosmos of animal and plant life all the way to geometric abstraction, this lavishly illustrated volume provides a multifaceted new approach to the artist. Paintings and drawings, photographs, set designs, and commercial graphic works offer a comprehensive view of the artist and an expression of modern romanticism.
The play of light and shadow, visionary images, and vibrant colours shaped the work of T. Lux Feininger. The son of the famed Bauhaus master Lyonel Feininger studied at the Bauhaus himself and later worked in America. Over the course of nine decades, his consistently superb output was shaped by romantic ideals of primordial inspiration. An artistic oeuvre full of dream worlds and longing, wit and imagination!
