Description

Grosz is a graphic biography that tells the story of George Grosz, a German fine artist and cartoonist. Written and drawn by Lars Fiske, this series of short comics explores Grosz's life, from his early work to his experiences in post-World War I Berlin. Fiske's artwork channels the angular style of Grosz, with bold lines and vibrant colors that evoke the exuberance of early 20th-century art movements. The book uses two distinct colors: red for Berlin, where Grosz lived and worked, and green for New York, where he would flee to escape Nazi Germany. This is a unique and thoughtful biography that sets it apart from other graphic biographies on library shelves.
