E. L. 키르히너의 스위스 작품
1921
This bold woodcut cover, titled 'Schweizer Arbeit' (Swiss Work), marks a dramatic chapter in Ernst Ludwig Kirchner’s life, showcasing his output from 1916 to 1920. Fleeing the chaos of World War I and a severe mental breakdown in Berlin, Kirchner retreated to the Swiss Alps, swapping his famous jagged cityscapes for angular nudes, animals, and mountain motifs. The stark black-and-orange contrast is classic Expressionism, but the subject matter reveals a man seeking healing in nature and folklore. It’s a visual diary of his recovery, proving that even in isolation, his artistic energy remained explosive.
