August Strindberg and Visual Culture

<i>August Strindberg and Visual Culture</i>addresses the multiplicity of Strindberg's artistic and literary output. The book charts the vital intersections between theatre aesthetic theory and visual elements in his work that have been left largely unexplored. Rather than following traditional genre-bound critical approaches this book focuses on the intermediality of individual works the corpus as a whole and their connections to a wide array of historical and contemporary artists writers photographers film theatre and museum practitioners. The book is beautifully illustrated with many never-before-seen images from Strindberg's work and includes contributions from actress Liv Ullmann director Robert Wilson and curator and museum director Daniel Birnbaum.
