EDITORS COMMENTS
The print "Mit dem Selbstmord Spielen (Playing with Suicide), 1919" by Walter Gramatté captures the essence of German expressionism in the early 20th century. This colored woodcut, printed in blue and hand-colored with red gouache on wove yellow paper, is a striking representation of the artist's exploration of death and its relationship to human existence. Gramatté's artistic movement sought to challenge societal norms and provoke emotional responses through his work. In this piece, he delves into the concept of suicide, using bold colors and expressive lines to convey a sense of despair and anguish. The image depicts figures engaged in what appears to be a dangerous game, symbolizing their willingness to toy with their own mortality. As viewers engage with this artwork at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, they are confronted with questions about life's fragility and our capacity for self-destruction. The German heritage art represented here reflects a turbulent period in history when artists grappled with the aftermath of World War I and its profound impact on society. Walter Gramatté's "Mit dem Selbstmord Spielen (Playing with Suicide)" serves as a powerful reminder that art has the ability to confront uncomfortable truths while offering an opportunity for reflection and introspection.
