A good many of those figures are self-portraits. Schiele returned to himself as a subject again and again over a period of many years, recording himself in various poses and styles. When he used his own body as a model, his interest often lay not in his actual self, but more generally in the position of the individual in the changing modern world. Posing in a variety of roles, Schiele uses his face like a mask. This beautifully produced book offers a comprehensive account of this crucial, yet underappreciated, aspect of Schiele's art.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eElisabeth Leopold\u003c\/b\u003e is cofounder of the Leopold Museum Vienna, curator of numerous exhibitions, and the author of many articles on art and culture in Vienna around 1900.\u003cb\u003e Stefan Kutzenberger\u003c\/b\u003e is a writer, literary scholar, and curator who lives in Vienna.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 160\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 23, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42736347021375,"sku":"9783777441832","price":50.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/9438bbdbfc3a1debf3de0b628cf823cd.webp?v=1765146437","url":"https:\/\/dhlswag.com\/products\/the-faces-of-egon-schiele-self-portraits-hardcover","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
