It centers on the following question: How and to what end was the human body discussed, portrayed, and utilized as an aesthetic metaphor in turn-of-the-century Vienna? By scrutinizing theatrically "hysterical" performances, avant-garde puppet plays, and images created by Oskar Kokoschka, Koloman Moser, Egon Schiele and others, Nathan J. Timpano discusses how Viennese artists favored the pathological or puppet-like body as their contribution to European modernism."--Page i. 650 0 $a Art, Austrian $z Vienna $z Vienna $y 19th century. 650 0 $a Art, Austrian $z Vienna $z Vienna $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Human figure in art. 650 0 $a Body image in the performing arts $z Vienna. $z Vienna. 650 0 $a Puppets in art. 650 0 $a Puppet theater $z Vienna. $z Vienna. 650 0 $a Art, Modern $y 19th century $x Themes, motives. 650 7 $a Art, Austrian. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00815978 650 7 $a Art, Modern $x Themes, motives. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00816663 650 7 $a Body image in the performing arts. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01763084 650 7 $a Human figure in art. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01896063 650 7 $a Puppet theater. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01084220 650 7 $a Puppets in art. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01084240 651 7 $a Austria $z Vienna. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204516 648 7 $a 1800-1999 $2 fast 830 0 $a Studies in art historiography (London, England) 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191210025536.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=770F0798FAD211E7A45C351A97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
