Cahn, Miriam: Miriam Cahn - Das Zornige Schreiben Katalog zur Ausstellung 2019/2020, Zeitgenössische Kunst

The Swiss artist Miriam Cahn (*1949, Basel) deals with political and social themes in oil paintings, charcoal, chalk, colored and lead pencil drawings, photographs, films, and installations. Her habit of commenting upon her work in writing is a golden thread running throughout Cahn's career. WRITING IN RAGE is the first compilation of her writing by itself, and includes essays, journal entries, and correspondence with friends, foes, family members, and gallerists. The book provides very personal insights into Cahn's life, her family, and the art market, introducing the reader to a disputatious, independent spirit.
