Helene Schjerfbeck (illustrator). BRAND NEW. FACTORY SEALED. Carefully packed (heavy books are double boxed) and shipped same day if purchased by 12 Noon EST, to arrive to USA customers in 2-5 business days. eevaluating the role of Finnish painter Helene Schjerfbeck (1862-1946) in the history of modernism, this publication highlights pivotal passages in her sixtyyear career?from her training at the Finnish Art Society and remarkable early success to her studies in Paris and St. Ives and eventual return to Finland. There, in relative isolation, she pared down figure paintings and still lifes to near abstraction while introducing greater complexity in her canvases. Long celebrated in Finland and Sweden, Schjerfbeck is relatively unknown to the rest of the world. This book provides fresh insight into her idiosyncratic processes and discusses the series of haunting self-portraits that she painted in her final years, which stand among the twentieth century's most extraordinary selfexaminations. Seeing Silence: The Paintings of Helene Schjerfbeck introduces an extraordinary Nordic artist who realized her own unique vision with passionate determination, despite personal adversity and her homeland's.

Hardcover. Condition: gut. 2007. Die Malerin Helene Schjerfbeck (1862-1946) ist in ihrer Heimat Finnland eine Nationalheldin. Vom Realismus kommend und impressionistische Einflüsse aufgreifend, löste sich Schjerfbeck mit der Jahrhundertwende bewußt von der Nationalromantik ihrer nordischen Kollegen und ging einen ganz eigenen Weg, der eher internationale Einflüsse erkennen läßt. Sie folgte selbstbewußt einer modernen Auffassung von freiem Farbauftrag und reduzierter Formensprache und nimmt in einigen Bildern bereits Momente der Abstraktion vorweg. 1902 galt sie bereits als eine der wichtigsten Vertreterinnen einer Generation finnischer Künstlerinnen. In den folgenden knapp 50 Jahren selbst gewählter Isolation in finnischen Dörfern entwickelt Schjerfbeck einen eigenen expressiven Stil, der in seiner Strenge, Stille und Intensität tief beeindruckt und gleichzeitig voller Kraft und Sensibilität ist. Fern von Historismus und Nationalromantik schildert die Künstlerin das einfache Leben der Frauen und Kinder. In den Bildern tritt das szenische Umfeld hinter der von einer inneren Kraft getragenen Haltung der Figuren zurück. Schjerfbeck reduziert das Erzählerische zu einer höchst ausdrucksstarken Formensprache. Das Katalogbuch dieser ersten umfassenden Retrospektive außerhalb Skandinaviens präsentiert über 120 Ölbilder, Aquarelle und Zeichnungen aus dem umfangreichen Ruvre der einflußreichen Malerin. Zu sehen sind Selbstporträts, Porträts, Landschaften und Stilleben, die den höchst eigenwilligen Stil Schjerfbecks zeigen und ihre herausragende Stellung in der Moderne offenbaren.
