Description: The Lentosmuseum has a particularly extensive collection of graphics, book illustrations and artist letters of Alfred Kubin. It is the third-largest collection in Austria and contains some very special treasures. So this is good news for all Kubin fans that this collection is now being acknowledged in an extensive catalogue, and that the valuable items can now be revealed and admired. For the first time, the great significance of the relationship between the great philanthropist, sensitive observer, but also very introverted artist and the gallery owner Wolfgang Gurlitt is acknowledged and illuminated. Exhibition: Nordico Museum, Linz (7.5 - 29.8.2010).
Notes: Includes letters by the artist.
