The core oeuvre of Austrian painter Egon Schiele (1890-1918) was produced within barely a decade, at the beginning of the twentieth century. His famous nudes probed the existential core of human experience. The paintings of British artist Jenny Saville (born 1970) are equally intense, with their physicality and confrontational stance. This catalogue brings the work of these two artists together for the first time. The stylistic and thematic proximity of the "body-landscapes" and portraits by these two young painters is revealed, despite the decades separating their work and their varying use of the brush. The paintings and drawings of both artists lend the human body an insistent corporeality, rendered in every detail. In Schiele's self-portraits, usually small-format works, the pose, the accentuated view from below and his gestural style give the images a visual impact equal to the forceful punch of Saville's giant-format paintings.

This book was produced to accompany the exhibition of work by Egon Schiele and Jenny Saville held at Kunsthaus Zurich from 10 October 2014 to 25 January 2015. The main body of work by painter Egon Schiele (1890?1918), who died at an early age, was produced within barely a decade. His famous nudes unwaveringly probed the existential core of human experience. The paintings of Jenny Saville (b.1970)) are no less intense in terms of their physicality and confrontational stance. This catalogue brings together the works of these two artists for the first time. Revealed is the stylistic and thematic proximity of the body landscapes and portraits by the two young "stars"?despite the decades separating their work and their varying use of the brush. The paintings and drawings of both artists lend the human body an insistent corporeality, which is rendered in every detail. In Schiele's self-portraits, usually small-format works, the pose, the accentuated view from below, and gestural style give the images a visual impact equal to the forceful punch of Saville's giant formats.
