2034 -- VOLZ, ANDREAS

Der Blick ins "Verborgene". Das "Röntgen"-Motiv in der außereuropäischen und europäischen Kunst
Tribus 46.1997:129-156

Seeing the "Hidden". The "X-ray"-motif in non-European and European art
Volz deals with "x-ray-style" objects of art in many cultures and argues that this phenomenon should not be classified as a style (A. Lommel) but as a motif instead, a motif being part of a given art tradition. The author describes numerous works of art showing the hidden, "interiors", from prehistoric times to 20th century modern art (P. Klee, M. Chagall).

Keywords: x-ray style, art, Lommel, A., style vs. motif, motifs of hidden objects
