Passion Leidenschaft: Die Kunst Der Großen Gefühle [German]

By Klaus Niehr, Ute Frevert, Ulrich Heinen, et al.

Envy and anger, love and hate, desire and jealousy--the depiction of heartrending, very dramatic, deeply exhilarating, or deeply upsetting figures and scenes has been a central theme throughout the history of European art. Great emotions change the world, influence our thinking and beliefs, and lead to war and resistance. In politics and society, emotions are more relevant than ever. In a large special exhibition at the LWL-Museum f r Kunst und Kultur in M nster and the accompanying catalogue, some 160 artworks provide a historical overview from the beginnings in antiquity until the present day. Brought together are paintings, sculptures, photos, and video installations by Matthias Gr newald, Leonardo da Vinci, Peter Paul Rubens, Camille Claudel, Edvard Munch, K the Kollwitz, Bill Viola, Maria Lassnig, and many more.
