KUNSTWERKE OSKAR KOKOSCHKA

Oskar Kokoschka | A collection of 89 works | LearnFromMasters | Description: „Oskar Kokoschka was born March 1, 1886, in the Austrian town of Pöchlarn. He spent most of his youth in Vienna, where he entered the Kunstgewerbeschule in 1904 or 1905. While still a student, he painted fans and postcards for the Wiener Werkstätte, which published his first book of poetry in 1908. That same year, Kokoschka was fiercely criticized for the works he exhibited in the Vienna Kunstschau and consequently was dismissed from the Kunstgewerbeschule. At this time, he attracted the attention of the architect Adolf Loos, who became his most vigorous supporter. In this early period, Kokoschka wrote plays that are considered among the first examples of expressionist drama. His first solo show was held at the Galerie Paul Cassirer, Berlin, in 1910, followed later that year by another at the Museum Folkwang Essen. In 1910, he also began to contribute to Herwarth Walden’s periodical Der Sturm. Kokoschka concentrated on portraiture, dividing his time between Berlin and Vienna from 1910 to 1914. In 1915, shortly after the outbreak of World War I, he volunteered to serve on the eastern front, where he was seriously wounded. Still recuperating in 1917, he settled in Dresden and in 1919 accepted a professorship at the Akademie there. In 1918, Paul Westheim’s comprehensive monograph on the artist was published. Kokoschka traveled extensively during the 1920s and 1930s in Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East. In 1931, he returned to Vienna but, as a result of the Nazis’ growing power, he moved to Prague in 1935. He acquired Czechoslovak citizenship two years later. Kokoschka painted a portrait of Czechoslovakia’s president Thomas Garrigue Masaryk in 1936, and the two became friends. In 1937, the Nazis condemned his work as “degenerate art” and removed it from public view. The artist fled to England in 1938, the year of his first solo show in the United States at the Buchholz Gallery in New York. In 1947, he became a British national. Two important traveling shows of Kokoschka’s work originated in Boston and Munich in 1948 and 1950, respectively. In 1953, he settled in Villeneuve, near Geneva, and began teaching at the Internationale Sommer Akademie für Bildenden Künste, where he initiated his Schule des Sehens. Kokoschka’s collected writings were published in 1956, and around this time he became involved in stage design. In 1962, he was honored with a retrospective at the Tate Gallery, London. Kokoschka died February 22, 1980, in Montreux, Switzerland.“ | YouTube

Bregje van der Laar interviews… Oskar Kokoschka | Museum Boijman Van Beuningen | He died in 1980 at the grand old age of ninety-four, yet as an artist Oskar Kokoschka never lost his youthful passion and vitality. His paintings and drawings testify to the energy and excitement he must have felt when he created them. His work radiates energy and it is this power that has gripped and influenced countless artists in diverse disciplines. Kokoschka was the great exemplar for the ‚Neue Wilde‘ artists of the 1980s; playwrights honour him worldwide with homages and reinterpretations of his plays, and museums exhibit their Kokoschkas with pride. Every now and then a curator stages a special exhibition, as Beatrice von Bormann has done in Oskar Kokoschka: Portraits of People and Animals for Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen in Rotterdam. Bregje van der Laar, the well-known guide from the Boijmans TV series, is another great fan of Oskar Kokoschka. To mark the occasion of the exhibition in her museum, Bregje brings the Austrian artist back to life in an intimate conversation based on a programme shown on German television in 1966. Oskar Kokoschka: Portraits of People and Animals can be seen in Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen until 19 January 2014
