"The artist Johannes Itten (1888-1967) was not only a pioneering art theoretician and teacher, who crucially influenced the Wiemar Bauhaus with this teaching methods, but he also left an extensive and hugely varied oeuvre. The total spectrum of this artistic output is comprehensively honored in this opulently illustrated catalogue raisonne. Paintings, watercolors, drawings, graphic works, sculptures, carpets and furniture: Johannes Itten was an unusually versatile artist who over the course of six decades occupied himself intensely with matters of color theory and art education. Volume 1 of the three-volume catalogue raisonne documents the paintings, watercolors, and drawings dating from the period 1907-1938. Volume II will follow with the works from 1939 to 1967, while volume III will deal with prints, sculptures, textiles and furniture, along with resources and documents relating to Johanness Itten."--From back cover.
