Rough, unadorned and dismissed as ?gutter art in conservative circles: Käthe Kollwitz used her art uncompromisingly as a political voice for the social and human misery of her time. Her focus always lies on human dignity. This volume provides a wide-ranging insight into the artists commitment and creative work. Her oeuvre is more topical than ever today. With her world-famous cycles of graphic works A Weavers Revolt" and "Peasants War", rare proofs and touching drawings and sculptures, the book covers the entire spectrum of Kollwitz creative work and shows all the facets of her masterly skills. The political dimension of her art becomes especially tangible through her posters. Interventions by the artist Mona Hatoum (b. 1952) underscore the enduring relevance of Kollwitz art. Hatoum produces works that revolve around issues of vulnerability, displacement, and the experience of conflict."
