Maria Lassnig

The fascination of the work of the internationally acclaimed artist Maria Lassnig (1919-2014) is unbroken and her "body awareness painting" has become a distinctive term. For the most part, however, the focus is on the artist's painterly work. Her work on paper - and here especially the drawings - has so far received only sporadic attention. This book provides the first comprehensive insight into the great importance of drawing in Maria Lassnig's oeuvre in around one hundred examples of her works. Text contributions by Peter Assmann, Rosanna Dematté, Claire Hoffmann, Peter Pakesch, Teresa Präauer complement the richly illustrated volume.
