Lyonel Feininger: L'Arpenteur Du Monde

By David Butcher, Annette Haudiquet, Heinz Widauer

Covering Feininger's career from 1907 to 1949, this catalogue highlights the graphic works of the artist, and particularly the woodblock prints produced during his Bauhaus period from 1918 to 1922. The exhibition held at the MuMa in Le Havre, France, is the first monographic presentation of Feininger's work in France, and has been made possible thanks to the generosity of one passionate collector. The touching and poetic works reveal Feininger as a politically engaged artist, whose convictions led to his involvement with the Bauhaus as Walter Gropius' first faculty appointment in 1919. This catalogue offers a study of the unique and coherent work of this modern master who bridged the gap between Europe and North America.
