In the essay volume a portrait of the life of the artist is sketched out to reflect the biographical and cultural-historical milestones of her life; the position of Baumgarte’s oeuvre in art history is examined; and the artist’s particular relationship to Africa is explained. The volume is complemented by a detailed illustrated biography. The second volume lists and illustrates all Baumgarte’s artistic works.
