Quellen zur Kunst

Edited by: Prof. em. Dr. Norberto Gramaccini und Prof. Dr. Ulrich Pfisterer

The series ‘Quellen zur Kunst’ (Examining Art through Sources) presents the works of art it examines from the perspective of one or several contemporary literary sources. The starting point for these examinations is the traditional understanding of a painting, sculpture, piece of architecture or graphic representation. The sources used can take the form of not only literary essays, artists’ statements and iconographic ensembles, but also, for example, pamphlets, chronicles or reviews.
