Synopsis
A leading Swiss painter and sculptor of abstract-figurative expressionism and an important representative of Tachisme or lyrical abstraction in the 1940s and 50s,Wilfrid Moser (1914–97) has gained international recognition for his vast oeuvre of paintings, wood reliefs, and sculptures. Wilfrid Moser. Signposts is the first comprehensive monograph of the life and work of this important figure of twentieth-century Swiss art.
Designed to accompanying a major retrospective exhibition at the Museum of Fine Arts Berne, Wilfrid Moser. Signposts includes essays by leading art historians and curators Matthias Frehner and Tina Grütter. Complementing the rich images, the essays focus on Moser’s biography, his travels through Europe and Morocco, and the stages of his work. An additional essay investigates his interest in space and the city as subjects of his work. While living in Paris in the latter half of his life, Moser became fascinated by the Métro, viewing it as a connection between hectic urban life and the classical myths of the underworld.
The premier English-language book on a significant Swiss artist, Wilfrid Moser. Signposts will be an essential volume for art scholars and historians.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Dieses Buch ist die erste umfassende Monografie über den Schweizer Künstler Wilfrid Moser (1914-1997). Es zeigt einen repräsentativen Einblick in Leben und Schaffen dieser Pionierfigur der abstrakten Nachkriegskunst in Europa, vom Frühwerk in den 1930er-Jahren bis zu den letzten Pastellen.Wilfrid Moser verbrachte als Kind längere Zeit in Venedig, Wien und Dresden, später unternahm er immer wieder Reisen durch Europa und in den Maghreb. Zudem lebte er lange in Paris, wo er Themen der Grossstadt aufsog und in sein Werk integrierte. Zu seinen künstlerischen Innovationen gehören Gemälde über die Pariser Métro, die einen neuen Typus der Grossstadt-Ikonografie in die Malerei einführten. Aus heutiger Sicht kommt zudem seinem figurativen Realismus besondere Bedeutung zu, der Tendenzen der Gegenwartskunst vorwegnahm. Auch der Stellenwert von Mosers farbigen Kunstharzskulpturen wird in diesem Buch, das zu einer grossen Retrospektive im Kunstmuseum Bern und in der Casa Rusca, Locarno, erscheint, erstmals breit gewürdigt.
