No jacket presumably as issued. 157 pages : color illustrations portraits ; 25 cm. On the occasion of the upcoming 90th birthday of Franz Gertsch MASI invites the artist to plan an exhibition devoted to his oeuvre. This has led to a remarkable and striking meeting between Gertsch's outstanding woodcuts and the wood engravings by two artists whom he regards as much more than simply pioneer revolutionaries of xylography Paul Gauguin and Edvard Munch. Despite their historical distance and stylistic divergences these three artists display profound and unexpected affinities which extend far beyond the technique they share. --Museum website.

"Mystikken og myterne omkring kunstneren Paul Gauguin 1848-1903 lever i bedste velgående. Hyldet som en af den tidlige modernismes mest betydningsfulde figurer men samtidig fordømt for sit arbejde og sin karakter. Bogen sætter fokus på Gauguins virke og et eftermæle der forbliver tvetydigt. Diskussionen om hans kunst og person er ikke blevet mindre relevant i en tid hvor #MeToo sætter nyt fokus på Gauguins forhold til mindreårige piger og hans andel i kolonialismen i Fransk Polynesien. Alligevel sælges hans malerier stadig for astronomiske beløb og kæmpeudstillinger præger museer verden over Gauguins status som berømt geni er uanfægtet. Det er på tide at betragte mesteren og monsteret som uadskillelige størrelser. Med Flemming Friborgs fascinerende bog anskues Gauguins metode og moral som uløseligt forbundne i et omhyggeligt plejet personligt brand. Men moderniteten havde store omkostninger kunstnerisk og personligt." "The mystery and myths surrounding the artist Paul Gauguin 1848-1903 are alive and well. Hailed as one of early modernism's most significant figures but at the same time condemned for his work and his character. The book focuses on Gauguin's work and a legacy that remains ambiguous. The discussion about his art and person has not become less relevant at a time when #MeToo puts a new focus on Gauguin's relationship with underage girls and his part in colonialism in French Polynesia. Even so his paintings are still sold for astronomical sums and huge exhibitions characterize museums around the world Gauguin's status as a famous genius is undisputed. It is time to consider the champion and the monster as inseparable entities. With Flemming Friborg's fascinating book Gauguin's method and morality are seen as inextricably linked in a carefully nurtured personal brand. But modernity had great costs artistically and personally.". Strandberg Publishing hardcover books
