sensuous portrayal of women. But

his multi-faceted oeuvre? How well
did he know Vincent van Gogh?
Did he ever see a picture by Henri

On the occasion of his 85th birthday, the
famous international German artist
Georg Baselitz (b. 1938) has donated a
collection of works on paper to both the
Albertina Museum in Vienna and the
Morgan Library & Museum in New York.
The publication combines the 100 sheets
to create a representative retrospective,
providing by virtue of its concentration
an important contribution to the under-
standing of his entire oeuvre.

To mark the 85th birthday of Georg Baselitz:

The two extensive sets of drawings and watercolours date from different
creative phases from the early 1960s to the present day. Through this
direct medium the works provide an intimate insight into the artist’s
creative process across the past five decades. An interview with Georg
Baselitz conducted to mark this publication provides information about
the significance of the works on paper in the genesis of his works and

Kubra Khademi (b. 1989) lives in Paris
and focuses in her work on her life as a
woman and a person with direct experi-
ence as a refugee. This makes it both
political and highly topical. Multi-faceted
themes pervade her art, including her
function as a mouthpiece and as an
element in the fight for the fundamental
rights of women, as well as artistic work
in exile and in a Muslim society.
Controversial – the Afghani artist, 25
feminist and activist Kubra Khademi
In paintings and more recently with the use of photographic techniques
and embroidery, Khademi presents tranquil nude female figures that –
depending on the angle – can nonetheless be interpreted as provocative.
They are juxtaposed with impressive performances that draw on the

“Portraiture Now” exhibition,
features the work of eight leading
contemporary artists who explore
familial relationships through
photography, painting, sculpture
and performance.
Eight of today's leading artists explore 31
the complex nature of relationships
Contemporary portraiture offers a way to consider the mutable yet endur-
ing qualities of familial relationships and the internal and external forces
that affect our bonds with others. For example, interpretations of distance–
whether emotional, physical, or geographical–have recently become more
fraught. By recognizing the transformations that occur in the genre of
portraiture and the threads that today’s portraits share, we can better
understand the universality and specificity of kinship. KINSHIP

As we navigate the early decades of a new
epoch defined by the measurable human
imprint on the earth, the question of how
we will reconcile our behaviour with the
evidence of its catastrophic effect is
yet to be answered. With her works on
sustainability, US artist Mary Mattingly
(b. 1979) examines how we can connect
and reconnect to Earth.

Time to reconsider what responsibilities we
have – the sustainable art of Mary Mattingly
Life on Earth depends upon clean air and water, biodiversity, and a stable
climate. These global commons–the ecosystems and processes that
regulate the stability of the Earth system–are the foundation of human
life, economy and society. As a visual artist, Mary Mattingly is a messenger
for ways how we can value these commons which makes her work highly
topical and important. The comprehensive publication features an
extensive overview of her instalments and performances, including the
Swale, an edible landscape on a barge in New York City.

Steven Scott (b. 1955 in London) is a
Copenhagen-based artist whose work
revolves around the rich complexities
of light. This volume takes us on a
journey through Steven Scott’s light art
works and installations of the past
forty years and covers his development
in the London/NYC Avant Garde theatre
and dance scene of the late seventies
and into the 1980s.
44
A sensitive and harmonious interplay of light,
colour and time set within architectural space
Originally a founder and designer at the influential London theatre and
arts centre Riverside Studios between 1976–1986, Scott had extensive
experience in theatre design and sculpture before turning to the creation
of light art. Since then has moved freely between fine art, theatre and
architecture. Central to Scott’s work is his rich appreciation of light and
its interaction with people and space. With supreme mastery he makes
reference to the rhythms of the day with works that gradually change
colour over time.

Gustav Klimt is the one artist whose name
we associate in particular with Viennese
Jugendstil and the “Golden Age”. As a
sought-after painter of frescoes and the
founding president of the Vienna Secession,
the portraitist of fashionable ladies and an
illustrator of unashamed eroticism, Klimt
was both the enfant terrible and the darling
of Viennese society.
52
A compact overview of Klimt’s life and 53
work with artworks from all creative phases
The new volume in the “Masters of Art” series shows that Gustav Klimt’s
complex oeuvre extends beyond his popular paintings: beginning with
Klimt’s early works, whose formal language was still based on the tradition
of Historicism, the author discusses Klimt’s Faculty pictures which were
produced during a time when his style was changing, so that even their
preliminary sketches caused a scandal. Klimt is described as a symbolic
figure and a progressive artist of the Vienna Secession. Last but not least,
he is shown as a magnificent illustrator and landscape painter.
Wilfried Rogasch studied history and art history in Göttingen, Munich and Oxford. Since 1989 he has lived
in Berlin as a freelance exhibition curator and writer.
