Her spellbinding photography from the 1920s stages bodies, interweaves pictorial planes, and exhibits dreamlike realities created through her own unique methods. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In her self-portraits, Astfalck-Vietz presents us with fantastical illusions by way of technical innovation. She designed and tailored her own costumes, slipping into different characters, be it a common drinker or a society lady, naked or wrapped in lace. Through roleplay she eludes the (male) gaze by consciously staging her own body. Inspired by a wide range of illustrated magazines, silent film classics from the 1920s, and her fascination with nature, she created an impressive body of work, which can now be discovered in its full range, extending even to watercolors with plant motifs. \u003cbr\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThomas Köhler \u003c\/b\u003ehas been director of the Berlinische Galerie since 2010. \u003cb\u003eKatia Reich\u003c\/b\u003e has been head of the photography collection at the Berlinische Galerie since 2020.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 256\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.87 x 11.18 x 8.74 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 10, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45853964435653,"sku":"9783777445342","price":68.78,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/6718\/5605\/files\/wL8bm_rMnY9783777445342.webp?v=1771469613","url":"https:\/\/selloorium.com\/products\/marta-astfalck-vietz-staging-the-self-paperback","provider":"Selloorium","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
