Oskar Kokoschka. A Monumental Artist

The first major biography on the monumental artist for thirty years reshaping our understanding of Oskar Kokoschka's life and times. Keeping very close to his work, Görner traces Kokoschka’s path from enfant terrible and starving artist to a wealthy cosmopolitan and seminal artist, who remained artistically and politically alert: by narrating Kokoschka’s life, his work is narrated – and vice versa.
