About the Book

Explore the œuvre of Erich Heckel, one of the most important German Expressionist painters of the twentieth century. Erich Heckel, 1883–1970, was one of the co-founders of the Ku¨nstlergruppe Bru¨cke (Artists' Group Bridge), established in Dresden in June 1905. He remained part of the group until it disbanded in May 1913. Despite his seminal role in the establishment of this critical early manifestation of German Expressionism, he has not garnered the same acclaim as his fellow Die Bru¨cke artists such as Ernst Ludwig Kirchner and Karl Schmidt-Rottluff. As a result, there is a dearth of literature available on him in English and he has never had a solo exhibition in an American museum. This important publication, which accompanies a show at the Neue Galerie New York, aims to redress this oversight. The texts presented in this lavishly illustrated monograph will focus on Heckel's early career and cover topics ranging from his involvement with Die Bru¨cke; the works he created during his idyllic summers in the Friesian beach resort of Dangast; his military service during World War I; and his bold and expressive woodcuts. Emphasis is placed on his portrait and landscape paintings and his vibrant pictures of bathers, which merge both genres. The authors will address the work he made in Dresden, Berlin, and northern Germany, in addition to his output while serving in Flanders during the war. AUTHOR: Vivian Endicott Barnett is an independent scholar. She has been the editor of and contributor to past Neue Galerie publications including Franz Marc and August Macke (2018) and Alexei Jawlensky (2017). SELLING POINTS: . PERFECT FOR: Lovers of art and museum-goes who want to learn more about one of the artists in the German artists' group Brücke, whose works have been seen less than his colleagues Ernst Ludwig Kirchner and Otto Müller. Therefore, new facets can be explored and a new approach to this artists' group is made possible by this book. . EXPERT ON GERMAN EXPRESSIONISM: Vivian Endicott Barnett has written on other German Expressionist artists, her books include Franz Marc and August Macke (2018) and Alexei Jawlensky (2017), both published by Prestel in collaboration with the Neue Galerie New York. Great, reasonably priced book: Beautifully designed with a cloth cover, brilliant reproductions of the art works and insightful texts written by experts of German Expressionism. 250 colour illustrations
