Age toning. Profusely illustrated. *** "The meaning of portraiture in the egocentric and erotic culture of Vienna at the end of the Hapsburg Empire frames Alessandra Comini's definitive, lavishly illustrated study of the art of Egon Schiele (1890-1918). Comini analyzes Schiele's work in the context of Viennese Expressionism, rising existential consciousness, and the unique ambiance of Vienna. The human figure forms the most compelling motif in Schiele's oeuvre, which is comprised of hundreds of oils and thousands of drawings. Numerous self-portraits record emotional states, reflect major stylistic changes, and provide a brilliant focus for this examination of his art and his life." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: Expressionist shift from facade to psyche; 1890-1909: Childhood and student years; 1909-1910: Toward artistic independence; 1910: The radical portraits and self-portraits: into the void; 1910-1914: Isolation and thematic absorption in self; 1912-1914: Major portrait commissions; 1914-1916: Emergence from isolation and new directions in style; 1917-1918: Schiele's later portraits: return from the void.

Egon Leo Adolf Ludwig Schiele (1890 ? 1918) was an Austrian Expressionist painter. His work is noted for its intensity and its raw sexuality, and for the many self-portraits the artist produced, including nude self-portraits. The twisted body shapes and the expressive line that characterize Schiele's paintings and drawings mark the artist as an early exponent of Expressionism. Gustav Klimt, a figurative painter of the early 20th century, was a mentor to Schiele.

SUMMARY:"Egon Schiele (1890-1918) was one of the greatest artists of the twentieth century. A superb draftsman and colorist, he produced images of startling emotional power. Following the lead of his mentor Gustav Klimt, Schiele created figurative works of uncanny intimacy and brought a new openness to the art of his time. Schiele's death at the age of 28 has added a mythic quality to his artistic achievements." "This publication accompanies the exhibition Egon Schiele: The Ronald S. Lauder and Serge Sabarsky Collections, which presents paintings and drawings from the collections of the co-founders of Neue Galerie New York. Together, these collections comprise the finest gathering of works by Schiele in the United States." "Essays examine the artist's reception history in American and Austria, the censorship of his art during and after his lifetime, and the lost Schiele collections. This publication also traces, for the first time, Schiele's enormous influence on contemporary culture."--Jacket. SUMMARY: Presenting reproductions of more than 150 paintings and drawings, this illustrated monograph offers information about Egon Schiele's collectors, promoters, critics and followers as well as the exhibitions, public acquisitions, publications and other projects relating to the artist that have taken place in the United States.

Condition: Gut. 30 S. Text, 79 Abb. auf Tafeln. Einband leicht berieben. - Egon Schiele overleed op achtentwintigjarige leeftijd, vlak na het einde var de eerste wereldoorlog. Hij was een meteoor die fei oplichtte aan de stralende sterrenhemel van Klimt, Kokoschka, Schönberg, Loos, Kraus, Musil, Freud, Weininger en Wittgenstein. Zoals bij zoveel van zijn expressionistische tijdgenoten was ook bij Schiele van een desorienterend dualisme sprake: zijn provocerende erotische ver- kenningen - die zijn naam als kunstenaar vestigden - belemmerden het zieht op de tedere kant van de Schilder, zoals die hier aan de hand van land- schappen en lyrische stadstaferelen behandeld wordt. Het 'humanitaire' in de onbevolkte landschappen en stadsgezichten van Schiele wordt door dr. Comini besproken en in verband gebracht met een obsessie voor pathos in de melancholieke allegorieen en existentiele portretten van de kunstenaar. In dit boek (haar derde boek over Schiele) gaat de schrijfster op zoek naar de bronnen van de kunstenaar binnen de context van de samenleving van vöör de eerste wereldoorlog, en zij schept een helder beeid van zowel ethos als eros in het werk van Oostenrijks grootste expressionistische Schilder. Een uniek onderdeel van dit boek vormt het belangwekkende 'Schielefotoalbum' : drieentwintig pagina's met vijftig foto's van Schiele, zijn ver- wanten en zijn vrienden.
