Max
Beckmann and the Self (Pegasus Library)
by Sister Wendy Beckett
Book Description: As original as he was prolific, German artist Max
Beckmann produced nearly a thousand works in a career that spanned two
world wars. This beautifully produced volume uses Beckmann’s own words
as an introduction to the artist’s creative expression and his unwavering
search for the self.
Beckmann struggled throughout his life to define his identity through
his paintings. He started out as an ambitious and self-confident young
artist, went through a horrific stint as a medical orderly in World War
I, and then became an exile in Holland and the United States. Through her
careful analyses of more than fifty works, Sister Wendy illuminates Beckmann’s
use of symbolism as well as the strong thematic strains of his paintings
and triptychs. The artist’s bold use of color and line are in brilliant
evidence in numerous full-color reproductions, and an extensive biography
as well as several photographs offer additional insight into this strong
creative presence who never failed to challenge himself or his audience
with his art.
