He observed society outside [drau en in German], in all realms of public life, with great sensibility: gossip mongers, potato sellers, a dancing couple. Wewerka created likenesses taken from real life. His artistic approach and his acute awareness of form made him an exceptional creator of modern earthenware who had already gained international recognition during his lifetime. This first, comprehensive monograph featuring a catalog of works documents Hans Wewerka's previously unknown career and traces his connections to modernist art, such as the Berlin Secession and artists like Rudolf Bosselt, K舩he Kollwitz, and Ernst Barlach.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eText in English and German.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kreisverwaltung Des Westerwaldkreises\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3897906678\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783897906679\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Arnoldsche Verlagsanstalt GmbH\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/19\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 184\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Kreisverwaltung Des Westerwaldkreises","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44069295390975,"sku":"9783897906679","price":65.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9855457e-67c9-4b91-89a9-552cebb2ebfe.jpg?v=1685423932","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/hans-wewerka-drauen-kreisverwaltung-des-westerwaldkreises-9783897906679","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
