Publication : “Caspar David Friedrich : Nature and the Self”.

AMSTUTZ Nina, Caspar David Friedrich : Nature and the Self, New Haven, Yale University Press, 2020, 280 p.
Présentation de l’éditeur :
In this revelatory book, Nina Amstutz combines fresh visual analysis with broad interdisciplinary research to investigate the intersection of landscape painting, self-exploration, and the life sciences in Friedrich’s mature work. Drawing connections between the artist’s anthropomorphic landscape forms and contemporary discussions of biology, anatomy, morphology, death, and decomposition, Amstutz brings Friedrich’s work into the larger discourse surrounding art, nature, and life in the 19th century.
Nina Amstutz is assistant professor in the history of art and architecture at the University of Oregon.
