Häftad, dek. omslag i färg med flikar. Förlagsnytt exemplar i perfekt skick. Stockholm, CKM förlag, 2011. Stor 8:o. 320 sid. Slösande rikt illustrerad i färg (den rikligast illustrerade monografin över Grünewald). Med utställningsregister, kronologisk verksförteckning, personregister och litteratur. Indelad i 25 kapitel: "Ursprung", "Konstnärsförbundets skola", "Myten om 1909", "Debututställningen 1909", "Bilden av Grünewald 1909", "Hotet mot den nationella konsten", "Académie Matisse", "De Ungas utställning 1910", "Bilden av Grünewald sedan 1910", "Sveriges mest kände jude", "Den första svenska intervjun 1917", "Expressionistutställningen - Liljevalchs 1918", "Avskedsintervjuerna", "Simson och Delila", "Grünewalds självporträtt", "Långholmensviten", "Kritikergenombrottet - Konstakademien 1932", "Grünewald och reklamen", "En ohejdad oriental - Liljevalchs 1934", "Antisemitismen och nazismen på 1930-talet", "Med Hjertén i främsta rummet - Göteborgs konsthall 1935", "Vecko-Journalen besöker Grünewalds i Saltsjöbaden", "Nationalmonumentet - Liljevalchs 1944", "Nazistiska incidenter på 1940-talet", "Dödsolyckan och det omedelbara eftermälet", samt "Efterord - om konsten att se". Orientalen är en kritisk granskning av hur den offentliga bilden av Grünewald och hans konst formades från debuten och hur den har förts vidare fram till vår egen tid. Allt sedan början av 1910-talet framstod i svenska tidningar den då drygt 20-årige konstnären Isaac Grünewald (1889-1946) som det enskilt främsta hotet mot den 'nationella' konsten i Sverige. Grünewald var jude, en 'oriental', en 'österlänning', en 'främling' som inte hörde hemma i den svenska konsten, hette det. Han framställdes som en obetydlig målare, men ett geni som 'reklammakare' att döma av den uppmärksamhet han alltid väckte med utställningar och insatser som opinionsbildare. Motviljan från presskåren vände först på 1930-talet, men Isaac Grünewald tycktes gå stärkt ur strid efter strid. Först i efterhand började kritikerna erkänna honom som sin generations mest kände, mest framgångsrike, mest inflytelserike och rentav främste svenske konstnär - och inte bara som den mest stridbare och kontroversomsusade. Sonsonen Bernhard Grünewalds bok Orientalen dokumenterar utifrån tusentals bevarade pressklipp de nationalromantiska och antisemitiska klichéer som klistrades fast vid den offentliga bilden av Isaac Grünewald. Den är samtidigt den biografi som ger den hittills mest ingående skildringen av Isaac Grünewalds liv och gärning. Boken ger även en större presentation av Grünewalds konstnärskap, med ett urval av 223 verk. …

Hardcover. Condition: Fine condition. First edition. 1/1000. Square Folio. 100pp. Original black cloth with glossy black lettering on cover and spine, in original photo-illustrated dustjacket, white and blue lettering on spine. Frontispiece. Title page printed in blue and black. "There is a peculiar verb in English which doesn't decline very well, the verb to matter. Hoflehner expects his pictures to matter. They're pretty enough, of course they are, and a pleasure simply to sample with the eye. But if youthink of any view in this collection merely as a pleasantly harmonious frameful of grey tones, you haven't done thinking about it. Because Josef Hoflehner photographs with the full resources of his wide culture fully engaged. This is not the photography of f/stops and film grades. This is the rarer photography, of someone who wants to address an audience and expects us to be moved and thoughtful in return. And in the proper sense of the word, it approaches the sublime." (Hodgson). Illsutrated with sixty-three high quality full page offset reproductions of b/w photographs. A retrospective collection of Hoflehner's minimalist photographs. Gallery copy sign taped to Brodart on front cover. Josef Hoflehner (illustrator).…
