ISBN: 9780300168464.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn exciting new look at a pioneering modern artist, who has often been overlooked by American audiences\n\nRecognized for his remarkable synthesis of Expressionist and Cubist techniques, Lyonel Feininger (1871-1956) has long been considered a leading modern artist in Germany. In his native United States, he is less well known. This comprehensive survey, which examines the artists broad-ranging interests and influences including his involvement in German Expressionism and the Bauhaus, will reintroduce his art to American audiences.\nGenerously illustrated, this publication features works from throughout Feiningers diverse career, including his turn-of-the-century satirical illustrations and comics, his carnivalesque Expressionist compositions and crystalline architectural scenes, his whimsical village of hand-carved wooden figures, and his late oils of New York City. The main essay discusses the full breadth of Feiningers career, tracing his relationship with groups and institutions that defined the development of modern art, including Cubism, the Blaue Reiter, the Blue Four, the Bauhaus, and Black Mountain College. Additional essays focus on facets of Feiningers work including his comics, his photographs, his musical compositions and their relationship to his visual art, and his reputation in Germany.\n\nPublished in association with the Whitney Museum of American Art\n\nExhibition Schedule:\nWhitney Museum of American Art\n(06\/30\/11-10\/16\/11)\n\nMontreal Museum of Fine Arts\n(01\/20\/12-05\/13\/12)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Yale University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44658939854901,"sku":"ByrdShop_0300168462","price":302.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/ByrdShop_0300168462_06801d40-27e4-456d-885e-cbb205cde4a8.jpg?v=1784448217","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/lyonel-feininger-at-the-edge-of-the-world-9780300168464","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
