Description
Lill Tschudi: A Monograph of a Forgotten Master Swiss artist and printmaker Lill Tschudi (1911-2004) was a trailblazer of modernist linocuts, flourishing in London and Paris during the inter-war years. Her bold and colorful works have gained recognition in the Anglo-Saxon world, with many of her prints held in permanent collections, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. This book is the first major monograph on Tschudi's life and work, featuring previously unpublished material from her archive and private collections. It sheds new light on her artistic process and choice of topics, and showcases a wide-ranging selection of her linocuts. With its illuminating essays and beautifully illustrated pages, this book offers a unique insight into the life and work of this extraordinary artist. A rare opportunity to explore the life and art of a pioneering printmaker, this book is a must-have for anyone interested in modern art and the history of printmaking.
