Dark Splendor by David Lynch

Germany. Max Ernst Museum Brühl des LVR & LVR Qualität für Menschen. Hardcover w. pictorial art cover by David Lynch. Book Condition: Fine. Jacket Condition: Fine. (ill. in colour & b/w). 352pp. Lynch's paintings, watercolors, drawings, lithographs, photographs, and- most recently- musical compositions are an indispensable component of his creative work. His art works share subject matter, motifs, and a repertoire of forms with his films. In his images, David Lynch introduces the viewer to a world governed by nightmares and the uncanny. Dark, muted colors and shifts proportion and perspective characterize his paintings; his photographs often show decay and transitoriness. Visual expectations are constantly undermined; disorienting photographic alienation and the disturbing eroticism of his reworked nude photography expand the scope of his artistic visions. The monograph was prepared in conjunction with the major David Lynch retrospective at the Max Ernst Museum Brühl of the LVR
