À propos du livre
Das Buch ist in Deutsch und Englischer Sprache
The sixty year span of Ernestine Tahedl’s work encompasses a variety of media and subject matter, from the bountiful and joyous images of her childhood drawings and paintings, her bold and daring abstract compositions, to the depth of her prints and etchings, the nuanced shadings of land, water and mountains in her large size paintings and free standing screens and the mystical world of her dreamy ponds. These works are a living testimony to the awesome beauty and fragility of her environment. Gathered here in a broad retrospective of her entire artistic oeuvre, they reveal her evolving search for freedom of expression and the fascinating workings behind her remarkable career as an artist in her adopted country
