About this artwork
Dr. Tina Sommavilla is a literary scholar who has extensively studied the work of Alfred Kubin. She published a monograph entitled “Other States: Psychopathology, Primitivism and Mysticism in Kubin, Broch and Musil”.
Her work contributes to a better understanding of Kubin's significance for literary modernism, especially with regard to the representation of the "Other" and the limits of representation in literature.
Cover image: Peter Maisch Painting,… Ettlingen: The Young Alfred Kubin Re-portrayed, painting, oil and pastel on paper, 29 x 24 cm, 2025, private collection of the author. Photography: Sebastian Stäbe.
The cover of Tina Sommavilla's book "Other States" benefits from Maisch's ability to visually represent the elusive – such as borderline psychological states or mystical experiences. This makes the book an impressive experience not only in terms of content but also visually.
Peter Maisch is a painter who works primarily with egg tempera and oil on relined canvas or jute and completed his training at the Staatliche Kunsthalle Karlsruhe. His works are characterized by directly applied paint on a rough surface and high-quality pigments, combining tradition with a modern, passionate perspective. He conveys deep emotions such as memory, longing, and melancholy, making the hidden beauty of places, landscapes, encounters, and lost time vividly palpable.
Peter Maisch transforms literature, stories, and fleeting moments into artworks that open up a new, sensual world to the viewer. His recent commission by an author from Wallstein Publishing for a book cover underscores his reputation and his ability to combine his art with other creative disciplines.
