The first collection in English to give a full accounting of Schad's peculiar genius. The 1920s German art movement "New Objectivity" (Neue Sachlichkeit) created a stark and indelible portrait of German society. Along with Max Beckmann, Otto Dix, and George Grosz, artist Christian Schad is central to any appreciation of this fascinating period in both art and history. Schad is a contradictory character. For all his icy-cool realism, Schad's mesmerizing paintings are characterized by an intense engagement with his models. While he is best known as a realist, he is also credited by the Dadaists as the inventor of abstract photograms, or "Schadographs." Published in conjunction with an exhbition at the Neue Galerie in New York, Christian Schad and the Neue Sachlichkeit includes over 140 full-color reproductions of Schad's paintings, drawings, woodcuts and "Schadographs."

Reviewing the sometimes unflinchingly realistic portraits of Christian Schad, this discussion emphasizes how his paintings mirrored society during the Golden Twenties.” These images showcase Schad’s radical and unique character inherent in his portrayals of artists, leading citizens, aristocrats, and other cultural figures, and the study contends that they continue to have an influence on a diverse range of realistic tendencies in art to this very day. Stressing that his oeuvre is characterized by constant experimentation, an ongoing dialogue with artistic tradition, and innovation, this examination delves into Schad’s past as well, revisiting his joining with the Dada Movement and the unique Schadographs” photographs on light-sensitive paper, made without a camera or a lens that he created from this avant-garde context. From his first paintings in the new objectivity” style and his return to Germany to the numerous portraits he produced during the 1940s, this biography also touches on Schad’s expressive painting and his experience with magical realism.

Christian Schad?s (1894?1982) cool vibrant portraits, with their immaculate surface and the expressive eyes, functioning as 'a mirror to the soul', soon became icons of the twenties. Apart from its focus on these world-famous key works representing the artist?s decisive contribution to the Neue Sachlichkeit (New Objectivity) movement, this publication also presents his early work, influenced by Cubism and Da?daism, and the abstracting tendencies of his work produced during the fifties. Works by companions and contemporaries place Schad`s art in the context of Classical Modernism. His graphic oeuvre shows that even at an advanced age he took joy in experimentation, doing brilliant work in a great variety of media and repeatedly exploring new frontiers, for example in his well-known and influential Schadographs and rare Formica pieces.
