Alfred Kubin

The Aesthetic of Evil


  • Hatje Cantz (T&H)
  • by Alfred Kubin, Elizabeth Dutz, Brigitte Holzinger, Natalie Lettner
The ALBERTINA modern exhibition presents Alfred Kubin''s view of the world of evil, the predominant theme of his life and work. The aesthetics of evil prove to be the antithesis of a tranquil idyll for him, one of the most outstanding drawing artists of the twentieth century. Trapped in his fantasies, he finds himself confronted with uncanny dream apparitions and a pronounced fear of the feminine, the night, and fate. This catalogue explores Kubin''s graphic cosmos of the ominous iconography of evil.
