Max Beckmann • New Oeuvre Catalogue of the Paintings

The two-volume oeuvre catalogue of the paintings of Max Beckmann, newly edited and published with an english supplement in 2021 is availiable exclusively at Galerie Thomas.

Together with Professor Maaz from the Bayerische Staatsgemäldesammlungen, we were able to browse through the extensive volumes and are proud to offer this limited edition of 200 copies.

According to his own list of paintings, of the 843 paintings that Beckmann painted in his lifetime, 706 are published in large-format colour illustrations in the new oeuvre catalogue, 68 in black and white, while only 69 have been lost or destroyed and may never have been photographed. The expert Dr. Anja Tiedemann has created this new edition on behalf of the Kaldewei Kulturstiftung, Ahlen, in cooperation with the Hamburger Kunsthalle and the Bayerische Staatsgemäldesammlungen – Max Beckmann Archive, Munich on the basis of the catalogue raisonné published in 1976 by Göpel.

The printed volumes have large-format illustrations covering both pages and provide inspiring access to further details, including data from the journals of the artist.
