“KLEINE DADA SOIRÉE” // 1922 THEO VAN DOESBURG & KURT SCHWITTERS [lithographic poster/program | 30.16 x 30.16 cm.]

[germanpostwarmodern]

In March 2000 the Centraal Museum in Utrecht and the Kröller-Müller Museum in Otterlo jointly opened an extensive retrospective of Theo van Doesburg’s (1883-1931) multifaceted oeuvre and contextualized it with works by contemporaries. The exhibition was divided into periods with the Central Museum presenting Van Doesburg’s work up until 1923 and the Kröller-Müller focusing on the years between 1923 and the artist’s untimely death in 1931.

Instead of a double-catalogue the exhibitions were accompanied by the publication of the present complete work catalogue that had been compiled over a period of three years. It contains some 2,000 works ranging from oil paintings, drawings and sketches to architecture, texts, essays, stories and poems. Accordingly it provides very interesting insights into the artist’s oeuvre, e.g. his early work influenced by Van Gogh and the Amsterdam Impressionists. Beyond that it also contains an extensive bibliography that includes primary and secondary literature but also an exhibition register as well as auction catalogues featuring works by Van Doesburg’s.

And although it covers some 840 pages the oeuvre catalogue due to its unusually handy dimensions is a wonderful source for exploring the work of a key protagonist of 20th century avant-garde art.
