Emil Nolde - The Grotesques

While Emil Nolde is famous for his spectacular sea views and colorful flower gardens, his penchant for the fantastical and the grotesque has received less attention. The decided influence they had on his artistic work is however apparent from his autobiography and his numerous letters. The catalog that accompanies the exhibition, which also presents unpublished works, rediscovers for the first time a fascinating facet of the great painting and watercolourist.
