Text and images inside appear clean and clear throughout. 'Otto Dix was the artist of Neue Sachlichkeit, the New Objectivity, par excellence. Painting in a very realistic, almost photographic style, he chose as subjects the poverty, violence, death, and war that he experienced as a soldier in World War I. He staged the world as a play, a grotesque farce based on the classical canon of beauty. Read as examples of many of his works and the story of his life and the context of those works as they unfold in this book.' 216 pages. 8 x 9.75 inches. May require additional postage.
