{"product_id":"65491-caspar-david-friedrich-az","title":"Caspar David Friedrich: A-Z","description":"Caspar David Friedrich's 250th birthday will be celebrated in 2024. The paintings of this outstanding artist continue to gain relevance – hardly a discussion about climate or sustainability takes place without one of his iconic paintings being invoked as a silent witness. In this handy volume, Barbara Hess examines the painter's work and life, from its enduring topicality to the great themes of Romanticism and drawing. In the playful format of an A–Z book, the author takes us on a journey of discovery and shows how new views and perspectives can always be gained from what was long thought to be familiar.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book is also available in \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.hatjecantz.de\/products\/65492-caspar-david-friedrich?_pos=1\u0026amp;_sid=6f90c5695\u0026amp;_ss=r\"\u003eEnglish\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCASPAR DAVID FRIEDRICH (1774 – 1840) is the most important artist of German Romanticism. Born in Greifswald, he studied at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen and settled in Dresden from 1798. His landscape compositions bear witness to great inwardness and melancholy. Friedrich demanded a new pictorial awareness from viewers, yet his works resist a single interpretation and can always be reinterpreted.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe art historian BARBARA HESS (*1964) has published works on avant-garde galleries, Abstract Expressionism, documenta, Lucio Fontana, and Jasper Johns, among others. Hatje Cantz recently published \"es gibt im Moment keine besseren Künstler als uns in Deutschland\" HP Zimmer, Tagebuch 1957 – 1965, edited by Barbara Hess, Matthias Mühling, and Nina Zimmer.","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Book (978-3-7757-5566-5)","offer_id":49635768271112,"sku":"9783775755665","price":18.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Ebook - EPUB (978-3-7757-5882-6)","offer_id":49635768303880,"sku":"9783775758826","price":9.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Ebook - PDF (978-3-7757-5881-9)","offer_id":49635768336648,"sku":"9783775758819","price":9.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775755665_856ffff9-3cc8-4d59-85bc-de9a059b6fe9.jpg?v=1744051092","url":"https:\/\/hatjecantz.de\/en\/products\/65491-caspar-david-friedrich-az","provider":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
