completed projects

Das, was von uns weggeht - Abwesenheit, Zeit und das Wandermotiv in der deutschen Kunst des 19. Jahrhunderts (PhD Dissertation, 2017 - German only)

English Title: He who walks away from us - Absence, Time, and the motif of the Wanderer in the 19th-Century German art

Project funded by the Gerda Henkel Stiftung, Düsseldorf, Germany and the Stibeth Stipendium DAAD.

 

This project in Art History, with an underlying philosophical approach, deals with the motif of the wanderer in specific works of five different artists of the German speaking 19th-Century: Caspar David Friedrich, Carl Gustav Carus, Carl Spitzweg, Moritz von Schwind and Arnold Böcklin. By choosing only wanderers portrayed as rear-view figures {Rückenfiguren} I argue that this particular depiction reveals a paradigm of appearing in disappearing, which entails different experiences of absence and temporality.
