Wilhelm Thöny

This catalogue constitutes the first comprehensive monograph in 40 years on the life and work of Austrian painter and graphic artist Wilhelm Thöny (1888–1949). From this distance, we are brought up to date on issues relating to his life in Graz, Munich, Paris and New York. This catalogue establishes new focal points in his art practice as a painter of European Modernism. A wealth of illustrations, a considerably expanded catalogue raisonné, correspondence with a number of his contemporaries including Alfred Kubin, photos and documents make this catalogue a definitive work that presents aspects of art and culture from contemporary history.
