Louisiana Poster with work by the American artist, Marsden Hartley (1877-1943), Canuck Yankee Lumberjack at old Orchard Beach, Maine, (1940-41) . Although Marsden Hartley has been called "America's first great modern painter of the 20th century", his original work has long been overlooked. Louisiana presented him in 2019 at the first retrospective exhibition in Europe in over 60 years.

___

Marsden Hartley was both a painter and a poet and lived much of his life as a nomad between Europe and the United States, and his work can be considered a bridge between European and American modernism.

Harley's many travels resulted in a series of deeply original groups of works from 1906 to 1943. After Marsden returned late in life to his native Maine, he painted a series of portraits of muscular men, or perhaps especially of their bodies. A good example is Canuck Yankee Lumberjack at old Orchard Beach, Maine (1940-41) .

Marsden Hartley was centrally placed in the art world both in Europe and at home. Nevertheless, Hartley's art has been largely unknown - perhaps because of the multifaceted nature of his work, which has made it difficult to place him in art history.

The Louisiana exhibition was one of the largest presentations of Marsden Hartley's art. With over 110 paintings, the exhibition encompassed the artist's entire oeuvre, including his work as a poet and essayist.
