Charlotte Salomon. Life or Theatre: Life or Theatre: A Selection of 450 Gouaches

447413TASCHEN. Hardcover. Good. THERE ARE NO TARIFFS OR CUSTOMS DUTIES ON BOOKS. When German artist Charlotte Salomon 1917-1943 handed her gouache series Life or Theater over to a friend she beseeched him to take good care of it it is my entire life. A few months later the five-months pregnant Charlotte was picked up by a Gestapo truck deported to Drancy and then on to Auschwitz where she died upon arrival at the age 26.The work Salomon left behind is in a very real sense her pice de rsistance - in her own words something wildly eccentric. A cycle of nearly 1300 autobiographical gouaches it combines creative force with pioneering personal narrative into one shattering document of self-expression.Divided into three sections the gouaches unveil a vivid self-portrait spanning across all facets of Charlotte's existence: from a complicated family life marked by the suicides of nearly all female relatives; growing up in Berlin; her close relation to singing teacher Alfred Wolfsohn; the rise of the Nazis; to her exile to France in 1939. Throughout the artist challenges these destructive forces by deploying playful pseudonyms and fantastical elements alongside emotional candor remarkable observation and a meticulous visual memory. Her film strip-like sequences are interspersed not only with words but also musical suggestions making Life or Theater the storybook for a whole musical years before the heyday of that genre.Without comparison the gouaches are a triumph of personal truth and individual expression. Published here with a selection of the 450 most important pieces Life Or Theatre is an unrivaled opus magnum from a great and ambitious artist dark with her early death but luminous with her precision her lyricism and her courage.
