Robert Zünd (1827–1909) is Switzerland’s “Master of the Beech Leaf,” revered for his light-flooded paintings of bucolic landscapes. Tobias Madörin has achieved wide critical acclaim for his photographic tableaus that depict the interactions between people and their surrounding environment. Embedded in both artists’ work is a fascination with observation, or the intensity of the gaze, and so their works form a stylistically consistent pairing, the subject of an upcoming exhibition at Kunstmuseum Luzern.

Bellevue juxtaposes Zünd’s paintings with photographs by Madörin, some of which show the same views. Zünd’s paintings of sunlit paradises are so precisely rendered that, rather than enjoying their beauty, viewers feel compelled to look more closely. Madörin achieves a similar intensity in his photographs, working with a large-format analogue camera that lends an unusual slowness and attention to detail to the photographic process. The book provides a new way of approaching the work of both artists and their perception of the landscape at the heart of Switzerland. A wealth of illustrations is complemented by essays by curators Fanni Fetzer and Dominik Müller and American art historian Jonathan Steinberg.

Book Description Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Eichenwald, Pilatus und Vierwaldstättersee: Der Maler Robert Zünd (1827-1909) begeistert uns noch immer mit seinen naturgetreuen Darstellungen sommerlicher Landschaften. Auch «Meister des Buchenblatts» genannt, malte Zünd Motive, die ihn faszinierten - die Krienser Schellenmatt etwa - in mehreren Varianten: detailreich und harmonisch komponiert.In diesem Buch werden Zünds Landschaften den seit Frühling 2016 aufgenommenen Fototableaus von Tobias Madörin (\*1965) gegenübergestellt. Der Künstler durchstreifte mit seiner analogen Grossformatkamera die Schweiz und suchte dabei auch - aber nicht nur - die Standorte des Malers auf. Mit ihrer Intensität und ihrem Detailreichtum stehen Madörins Fotografien auf Augenhöhe mit Robert Zünds Gemälden. Fanni Fetzer und Dominik Müller beleuchten in ihren kunsthistorischen Betrachtungen die Begegnung von Zünd und Madörin, der amerikanische Historiker Jonathan Steinberg greift die politische Kultur der Schweiz damals und heute auf. In Bild und Text regt das Buch zum Dialog über die vergangene und die gegenwärtige Landschaft um Luzern an. Seller Inventory # 9783858815552
