More about the book
In his art, composer Arnold Schoenberg was always eager to embrace the new and the unfamiliar. A characteristic feature of his music around 1910 was a quest for analogous forms in other media, a search which led him to shift from music to painting. The expressionist paintings he produced during this period garnered glowing praise from Kandinsky and have lost none of their extraordinary power today, though they are rarely exhibited. Focusing on his self-portraits and abstract works, this publication provides an analytic and extensive view of Schoenberg's highly influential and visionary oeuvre.
