Summary
The Berlin painter and graphic artist Jeanne Mammen is one of the most unusual and colourful figures of recent German art history. Her complete oeuvre and the breaks with tradition that it reveals reflect and comment in an entertaining, critical way on the political and aesthetic upheavals of the last century. Mammen's art is highly regarded in specialist circles far beyond the boundaries of Berlin and Germany. This monograph presents an overview of her life's work to a broader public and not only leads viewers deep into the 1920s and 1930s, but also opens up surprising new perspectives on an outstanding artist of classic Modernism.
