About this book
Overview
Exploding with colour and energy, the works of Franz Hitzler deal primarily with the fateful influences on our lives and the experiential spaces between suffering and release. His paintings feature a distinctive iconography, bold shapes, and lines. Hitzler's early work was dominated by traumatic experiences and existential questions. This collection of his more recent work traces a marked transformation in Hitzler's style, a liberating spirituality. For the first time this volume allows viewers to explore the evolution of this important painter and translator of the human experience. AUTHOR: Wolfgang Jean Stock is a Munich-based curator, author and journalist, who specialises in contemporary art and architecture. ILLUSTRATIONS: 100 b/w & 60 colour
