George Grosz: Obra Grafica: Els Anys de Berlin - IVAM Centre Julio Gonzalez - 13 Maig / 28 Juny, 1992 [Catalan edition]

València (Spain): IVAM Centre Julio Gonzalez. Very Good. 1992. First Edition. Hardcover. DETAILS NEEDED. Catalogue issued to accompany an exhibition of the graphic work produced by George Grosz during his years in Berlin, from 1916 to 1932. The text of this edition is in Catalan -- appropriate enough, given that the exhibition was held in València, although my observation is that the regular Spanish-language edition is a good deal more common. But who cares?: given that there doesn't appear to have ever been an English-language edition of this publication, what monolinguists like myself are left with are the illustrations, and they are magnificent: over 150 of them (in black & white and color), rendered for the most part in beautiful full-page reproductions. (I'm tempted to say "suitable for framing," but I wouldn't want to encourage anybody to break this book apart.) If you read Catalan, all the better -- there's a lot of textual material, a biographical timeline, a bibliography, and so on -- but in any case, it's a visual feast that transcends any language barriers. ****NOTE that additional postage charges will be assessed for international shipping of this heavy volume; if this concerns you, please contact us for a shipping quote before placing your order.**** .
