 Item
Identifier: CC-34978-36695
Scope and Contents

The work of Hoffmeister is presented in this catalogue, edited by Harald Olbrich, in several phases. Following his early realistic prints and paintings in the 1920's, the artist composed line drawing cartoons of many of his contemporaries, including Man Ray, Karel Teige, Le Corbusier, Vladimir Mayakovski, and James Joyce. By the 1930's the drawings became more political in subject matter and included cartoons of an exhibition consisting of identical Hitler portraits and sculptures, Picasso painting Guernica, and Louis Aragon holding an immense flag. In the 1960's, Hoffmeister employed collage elements with drawn additions for literary illustration, for example, in the works of Jules Verne. During this period, Hoffmeister created collages of landscapes and cities with incorprated texts, as well as visionary works similar to those of Jess and Max Ernst. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

The book artists selected for this exhibition were influenced and stimlated with contemporary or historical scientific works and theories. The following is an abridged reproduction of Rider's essay. The first century after Gutenberg witnessed dramatic changes in the book, as well as the opening of the period known as the Scientific Revolution. But more than that, the early printed book of science, like many an artist's book since, helped to push the envelope-that is, it made special demands on the new technologies of printing, and prompted significant attempts to break the bounds of the printed page in order to encompass scientific information and images.
