Charlotte Salomon's 'Vie ? ou Théâtre ?' Published by Le Tripode
A review in artpress (December 2015, n°428, p.77) discusses Charlotte Salomon's work 'Vie ? ou Théâtre ?' published by Le Tripode. The article highlights Salomon's use of three colors—red, blue, yellow—and their variations to transform darkness into light. Between 1940 and 1942, the exiled young artist created a sarabande of gouaches, combining painting, text, and music to narrate her life. The review praises the publication for making Salomon's intimate and powerful cycle accessible.
