While Linde was a major voice in Sweden for over six decades, he is little known outside of Scandinavia.This anthology rectifies this oversight, compiling Linde's most rigorous and illuminating studies of Swedish painters and other modern masters such as Picasso, Matisse, Picabia and Giacometti, as well as a bevy of theoretical texts including his ambitious final essay on the art of drawing. The volume is generously illustrated and features an introduction by Olle Granath, also a former director of Moderna Museet.
