Verbal & Visual Art of Alfred Kubin
Alfred Kubin (1877-1959) was an artist who fought against innumerable odds
to learn his craft and to find his medium and his audience. Although in both
his life and his art he often exhibited a capricious disregard for causality
and revelled in inconsistencies, his work conveys his determination to
interpret, analyse, and illuminate the world as he saw it.

Alfred Kubin (1877-1959) was an artist who fought against innumerable odds
to learn his craft and to find his medium and his audience. Although in both
his life and his art he often exhibited a capricious disregard for causality
and revelled in inconsistencies, his work conveys his determination to
interpret, analyse, and illuminate the world as he saw it. He felt that his own
being was ravaged by a struggle between the demands of logic and the seduction
of imagination. His life ranged between these polarities, and his finest art
was created during those moments when he brought the two extremes into
balance.
