Maria Lassnig: Letters to Hans Ulrich Obrist
Living with Art Stops One Wilting!
Published by Walther König, Köln.
Edited by Hans Ulrich Obrist, Peter Pakesch, Hans Werner Poschauko. Text by Maria Lassnig, Hans Ulrich Obrist.
The Austrian painter Maria Lassnig (1919-2014) and the curator Hans Ulrich Obrist (born 1968) had a steady correspondence spanning 20 years, during which time they discussed art, literature and their exhibition and book projects together.
Published for the first time, Lassnig’s handwritten letters provide an insight into her reflections on art and her existence as an artist, into their heights, depths and intricacies. Lassnig allowed Obrist not only to partake in her thoughts on painting or her polemics on photography, but also in her everyday life between the urban art world and her remote studio in the Austrian countryside.
The book includes numerous reproductions of works by Lassnig, as well as of the letters and postcards to Obrist.

Woman Power: Maria Lassnig in New York 1968–1980
Published by Petzel.
Edited by Janine Latham. Text by Elisabeth Bronfen.
In 1968 at age 49, the painter Maria Lassnig (1919–2014) moved from her residence in Paris to New York City to be in, as she called it, “the country of strong women.” Although well known in her native Austria, Lassnig was virtually unheard of in the States and for the next 12 years she lived in relative anonymity, renting walk-ups in the Lower East Side and SoHo. New York offered Lassnig a liberation of sorts from the male-dominated art scene of Europe: it gave her the opportunity to be an artist, not simply a female artist.
This book brings together works and archival material from her time in New York from 1968 to 1980, including films that Lassnig created in collaboration with the Women/Artists/Filmmakers, Inc. group.

Edited with text by Hans Ulrich Obrist, Peter Pakesch, Denys Zacharopoulos. Foreword by Peter Pakesch. Text by Daniela Hammer-Tugendhat, Ingrid Rowland, Elisabeth Schlebrügge, Amy Sillman.
It gathers around 50 works—paintings and works on paper, especially watercolors—that deploy motifs from Greek mythology, also expressing characteristics typical of her work: the awareness of the body, the painterly rendering of the inner and outer world, as well as animal portraits and landscapes.

Maria Lassnig: Works, Diaries & Writings
Published by Koenig Books.
Text by Silvia Eiblmayr, Maria Lassnig, Laurence Rassel.
As an artist, Lassnig was preoccupied with a relentless self-questioning that she continued throughout her life. Her painting aimed at "body awareness," an effort to represent on canvas how her body felt to her from the inside. Her self-portraits were frequently expressed in traumatic, surrealistic forms that merged the human figure with the animal and the machine. This new volume presents 45 of Lassnig's paintings alongside a selection of her watercolors, videos, letters, photographs, drawings, writings (including from the artist's diaries) and archival material.
