2018166725Zurich: Scheidegger & Spiess 2018. Paperback. New in shinkwrap. Turquoise softcover with BW-illustration and white lettering. 96 pp. 55 color illustrations. The development of abstraction was a central process of modern art. But even artists who orientated themselves on the stylistic devices of figurative art influenced modernity considerably. This is illustrated by masterly - and sometimes seldom shown - works from the Kunsthaus Zürich collection which are brought together in this book. It thematizes the reception of such representational art as part of the collection history of the museum. The selection of important positions from 1890 to 1965 includes representatives of the naive the New Objectivity Dadaism and Surrealism among them artists as diverse as Arnold Böcklin Salvador Dalí Adolf Dietrich René Magritte Henri Rousseau and Félix Vallotton. Together they have the motivation to continue to offer image spaces that seem plausible to the eye. However it is no longer about realism but about the primacy of the imagination: a "visionary objectivity." -First Search. Scheidegger & Spiess paperback books
