3.0 out of 5 stars
Tantalising but just misses the mark,

This review is from: The Power of Art Hundertwasser: The Painter-King with the 5 Skins (Basic Series) (Paperback)
The power of Hundertwasser's vision is there, in the illustrations in this book. Even in the difficult text there are glimpses of a coherent summation of what the man was about. But the clunky translation, really transliteration, which fails to use clear Anglo-saxon phrases instead of over-inflated terminology, makes the text at times impenetrable and pretentious. This is a pity, because I suspect the tone in the original language was clear and passionate. On the whole, however, it was good enough as a first exposure to Hundertwasser, to make me want to explore this amazing and relevant man further. |
