	Ernst Ludwig Kirchner - AMAM
		Ernst Ludwig Kirchner was a draftsman,16 a printmaker,17 a painter,18 sculptor, and photographer;19 he also designed textiles and rugs, wrote diaries20 and theoretical essays on his art under the pseudonym Louis de Marsalle, and engaged in a voluminous correspondence.
		Kirchner's relationship with Erna, whom he named executrix in 1917, was not without problems, which were alleviated by her frequent trips to Berlin, leaving Kirchner in the solitude of his Alpine home.
		Kirchner's personal troubles might explain the changed mood of the nudes, which appear sad and reflective, in marked contrast to the expansive sensuality radiated by the woodcut of Dodo in her fl hat.

		A photo of Kirchner in his studio, wearing a soldier's uniform1 probably dates to 1915, when he volunteered to serve as a driver in the artillery in order to avoid being drafted for less desirable duties.
		Stylistically, the Oberlin self-portrait is comparable to Kirchner's Berlin street scenes of 1913-15, in which he employed a similarly "primitive" and sculptural manner with broken, angular lines and short crosshatched brushstrokes, indicative of his increasing interest in woodcuts.

		The rapid development of their personal styles was partly a result of their frenetic activity, including life drawing and painting at the Moritzburg lakes near Dresden, at the island of Fehmarn, and in their studios, as well as the production of woodcuts, lithographs, and an incredible number of drawings.
		When the group relocated to Berlin in 1910-11, Kirchner 's response to the confrontation with the metropolis resulted in the bold works that epitomize the hectic life in Berlin.
		Kirchner was regarded as the leader of the group, but when in 1913 it was suggested that he compose a history of Die Brücke, the others took offense at his egocentric account, and the group broke up.

	Ernst Ludwig Kirchner - 1880 to 1938 - Expressionist - a Review by Donald Goddard
		Kirchner himself wanted not to be seen as "a tame landscapist," but rather as a figure painter, which ironically allies him with academic tradition.
		In Kirchner this is encouraged, I suppose, or at least is preceded by Van Gogh's emphatic compulsiveness, Munch's exhilarating inwardness, Toulouse-Lautrec's swirling fatalism, and even Vuillard's psychological intricacy, and parallels, or slightly follows, the Fauves, and particularly Matisse's, freeing of color from representation, though in a much more emotionally incisive way.
		Sources of energy early in his career are the studio (usually his own) filled with all forms of art, the bodies of young women and men, lovemaking, sprawling children, circus and cabaret performers, people in the streets consciously unconsciously performing, bathers on the shore in summer.

		Ernst Ludwig Kirchner was born in Aschaffenburg, Germany.
		When he began to paint he was influenced by Neo-Impressionism but, by 1904, the influence of the Norwegian Expressionist Edvard Munch and of African and oriental art helped him to simplify his use of form and color into large flat washes.
		Kirchner was also a sculptor and graphic artist, exceptionally talented in the making of woodcuts, and as forceful in fl and white as in his vividly colored oil paintings.

		The first substantial publication on Kirchner in English for thirty years, this catalogue accompanies the first major exhibition in Britain of this most brilliant and intense founder of the Die Brucke school.
		Presenting a focused display of the artist's best work from 1905-1915, his most creative and innovative period, a key theme of the book will be to consider how, perhaps of all the artists in the early modern period, Kirchner was most responsive to the underlying tension between nature and civilisation that fascinated his generation.
		Containing essays by leading Kirchner and Die Brucke scholars, and impeccable reproductions of these too rarely seen works, this publication reaffirms not only Kirchner's importance within German Expressionism, but also his key position in early twentieth-century art.
