Title: Fritz Erler: Von Der Scholle in Den Krieg
Description: Koln, Wienand Verlag, 2016. Hardcover. Orange and color-illustrated boards with black and white lettering; 87 pp.; richly illustrated, chiefly in color. Text in German. Created on the occasion of an exhibition at Museum Wiesbaden, June 10th through October 9th, 2016. "At the turn of the last century, the painter and printmaker Fritz Erler (1868-1940) - co-founder of the artist group Die Scholle - assumed an independent position between Art Nouveau and Impressionism. In 1914, the nationalist was engaged as a war painter and later executed five war paintings. Although they actually soberly depict the terrors of war, they were later appropriated as aesthetic models for National Socialist propaganda. A fascinating analysis." -- Publisher's description.
