Description
Summary:Laserstein's current reputation as a great realist has assigned her an undisputed place in the 20th-century art history. Striking portraits, self-portraits and sensuous nudes demonstrate her synthesis of traditional painting style and modern subject matter in the Berlin period. During her five Swedish decades she produced an extremely extensive and diverse oeuvre. Works from all creative periods, including numerous works not published before, and texts questioning debates on gender and queerness as well as analyses of her assimilation strategies in Swedish exile will shed new light on the artist.
