Today, Neumann is best known for his subtly hued woodcuts and monotypes of human, animal, and abstract forms, created in the last twenty-five years of his life. But, in addition to the range shown in these brilliant pieces, a critical part of the artist's evolution is displayed in his other, earlier works: his series of graphic illustrations based on Dante's Divine Comedy; his rich, colorful portraits in oil and watercolor; the frightening grotesques he created during Germany's calamitous late 1920s; his Cezanne-inspired, watercolor still lifes; and his linoleum prints basedon Edvard Munch's creation myth, Alpha and Omega. Otto Neumann: His Life and Work brings to light the career of a significant, overlooked artist and places his work within the proper context of great twentieth-century art.
