Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. 144 pages. 50 etchings. Bibliography, biography. The experience of war has rarely been captured as precisely by a work of art as by Otto Dix's Der Krieg (War), a portfolio of fifty prints published by Karl Nierendorf in 1924 in an edition of 70 copies. The artist had spen…t more than four years in the trenches and suffered the terrible events at close proximity. He was able to condense his own experiences into a brutal, but aesthetically rich series that alternates among a variety of styles. All the prints depict aspects of trench warfare and daily life of soldiers at the front. We are confronted with ruined landscapes, with shot and torn bodies, as well as with assaults, bombardments, and visits to brothels and bars. The sheets in the series stand in sharp contrast to the glorification of war as a character-forming event, an attitude evoked frequently in the Weimar period. Dix refutes this propagandistic stance by showing the reality of of war, with it's ever-present suffering and death. Photos provided upon request.
