Ever since the 1960s, Georg Baselitz has specifically alluded to Edvard Munch in a number of his works; Munch is very much an artist who can be found in Baselitz's artistic universe. In interviews and statements, Baselitz has spoken about his great interest in Munch. Published in relation to MUNCHs extensive retrospective exhibition of Georg Baselitzs work, this lavishly illustrated volume offers a comprehensive look at the German expressionists extended dialogue with art history and his pivotal role in shaping modern artistic discourse. From his early figurative works to his revolutionary inverted canvases, Baselitz has consistently pushed the boundaries of artistic expression. This book examines Baselitzs navigation between figuration and abstraction, demonstrating how he breathed new life into painting during a period when many deemed the medium obsolete. With insightful essays by Jon-Ove Steihaug and Christian Weikop, and reflections by fellow artists on Baselitzs lasting impact on the contemporary art scene.
