Apart from artistically composed images, the estate also features numerous press photographs and astonishing snapshots. With its extensive commentary, this first photo-biography of Kokoschka provides an insight into the artist’s many-faceted work and eventful life. The publication offers a vivid record of the evolution of photography and a historico-cultural journey through the 20th century as reflected by the mirror of this extraordinary artist.
