Egon Schiele

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Egon Schiele (1918)

Egon Leo Adolf Schiele Ludwig (* 12. June 1890 in Tulln , Austria-Hungary , † 31 October 1918 in Vienna ) was an Austrian painter of Expressionism . Along with Gustav Klimt and Oskar Kokoschka, he is one of the most important visual artists of Viennese modernism .

Life

Egon Schiele's birthplace in Tulln, Lower Austria

Schiele was the third child of Adolf Eugen Schiele (1850–1905) and his wife Marie Schiele (1862–1935), née Soukup, from Krumau in southern Bohemia . Elvira (1883–1893), the eldest of his three sisters (the other two were Melanie, 1886–1974, and Gertrude, 1894–1981), died at the age of ten. Melanie worked as a milliner and married her work colleague Gustav Schuster (1884–1933) in 1923; the youngest sister Gertrude married the artist and friend Schiele's Anton Peschka in 1914 . She was a model for Egon Schiele in his early days.

Egon Schiele's father died of syphilis on New Year's Day 1905 . Then Egons godfather and uncle Leopold Czihaczek (1842–1929) became his guardian and sponsor. This event was formative for Schiele's life and art. Schiele attended primary school in Tulln in 1901 , then the Realgymnasium in Krems and from 1902 the Gymnasium Klosterneuburg a few kilometers north of Vienna. During this time he began to draw, primarily episodes from the railway world.

The art teacher Ludwig Karl Strauch and the Klosterneuburg artist Max Kahrer discovered his extraordinary talent there and supported him in his application for the Vienna Academy of Fine Arts , to which he was admitted in 1906 at the age of 16.

This professional goal did not correspond to the ideas of his guardian and therefore already led to arguments with the uncle. At the academy, Schiele studied painting with Christian Griepenkerl . At first enthusiastic, but then tired of the rigid everyday life at the academy and the conservative views of individual teachers, Schiele left the academy after two years and founded the Wiener Neukunstgruppe with a few fellow students .

In 1907 Schiele sought his first personal contact with Gustav Klimt , who became a paternal friend and mentor to him. He also moved into his first own studio in Vienna , at Kurzbauergasse 6 in Leopoldstadt , on the edge of the Vienna Prater . In 1908 Schiele took part in a public exhibition for the first time, in the Imperial Hall of Klosterneuburg Abbey . It was here that Heinrich Bensch, a later collector and pioneer of Egon Schiele, became aware of him. Schiele celebrated first successes in 1909 with the exhibition of his works, which are all very reminiscent of Gustav Klimt's style, as part of the Neukunstgruppe in the “Great International Art Show” in Vienna. In addition to artists such as Gustav Klimt and Oskar Kokoschka , Schiele was able to make a name for himself with the art critic Arthur Roessler , who played a decisive role in Schiele's advancement through his excellent contacts. Through Roessler's mediation, Schiele met the art collectors Carl Reininghaus and Oskar Reichel , who financially secured his debut in the Viennese art scene and provided him with numerous commissioned works. The art collector Franz Hauer was also one of his sponsors . Schiele moved away from decorative Art Nouveau through his brief friendship with Max Oppenheimer , whom he met in 1909. Around this time there was a clear turn to Expressionism in his work. The Neukunstgruppe exhibited for the first time in December 1909 in the salon of the art dealer Gustav Pisko in Vienna.

Schiele's artistic self-discovery seemed to be complete at this time, and in many of his works the borderline experiences between eros and death became very clear. Because of bohemian attitudes, as his uncle called them, Leopold Czihaczek resigned from guardianship. This led to serious financial problems at Schiele. A first solo exhibition of Schiele's work was shown in 1911 at the Miethke gallery in Vienna. In the same year he got to know the Munich art dealer Hans Goltz and in November 1911 he was accepted by the artists' association "Sema", which included Alfred Kubin and Paul Klee.

In 1910 he lived with Liliana Amon in his studio on Alserbachstrasse in the 9th district. Satisfied with the hype in the capital, Schiele moved away from Vienna in 1911. Together with Wally Neuzil (Wally = Walburga), his best-known model, he moved to Krumau ( Český Krumlov in Czech ), the birthplace of his mother. An artistically extremely productive period began there for Schiele. The old town of Krumau became his most popular motif at that time. But the population found Schiele's lifestyle objectionable; The trigger was probably the wild marriage with Wally Neuzil and the visits by children to Schiele's studio.

That is why they moved to Neulengbach that same year and rented an apartment in Au am Anzbach . In Neulengbach he was taken into custody for alleged kidnapping and desecration of a girl; the charge of kidnapping turned out to be unfounded; however, the court sentenced him for "disseminating immoral drawings". Schiele spent a total of 24 days in prison, where he drew a few sketches of his stay.

In 1912 he returned to Vienna. Together with the Neukunstgruppe, works were shown in the Budapest Künstlerhaus. At the "Blauer Reiter" exhibition, works by Schiele were presented in the Hans Goltz Gallery in Munich . The Folkwang Museum in Hagen (North Rhine-Westphalia) showed a representative exhibition, including pictures by Egon Schiele.

Thanks to his patron and fatherly friend Gustav Klimt , he was able to quickly gain a foothold again despite the bad reputation that had preceded him to Vienna. Klimt established important contacts for him with collectors and gallery owners, including one of his most important collectors, the industrialist August Lederer . He again celebrated great success in the Austrian art scene. For example, seven oil paintings, including the "Hermits", were shown in an exhibition by the Vienna Hagenbund .

In October 1912 Schiele rented a new studio at Hietzinger Hauptstrasse 101, which he was to keep until June 1918, almost until his death. His mentor Klimt had his studio nearby. The 13th district, Hietzing, is still considered a better area in Vienna today; u. a. the imperial residence of Schönbrunn Palace was located in this district. In 1913 he was made a member of the Association of Austrian Artists, of which Gustav Klimt was president. Several exhibitions in Austria and Germany followed in March.

By 1916 Schiele himself submitted theoretical and literary texts several times in a row to the Berlin magazine Die Aktion . In 1916 it brought out its own Egon Schiele booklet (No. 35/36). From 1914 onwards he increasingly occupied himself with woodcuts and etchings, the techniques of which he had learned from the painter and graphic artist Robert Philippi . On June 21, 1915, Schiele was called up for military service as a one-year volunteer in the kuk Infantry Regiment No. 75 . Shortly before he was transferred to Prague, Schiele married his long-time girlfriend Edith Harms on June 17, 1915; she lived with her sister Adele and her parents across from his studio, at the address Hietzinger Hauptstrasse 114. Edith asked Schiele to break with Wally Neuzil, which he carried out with a heavy heart after both women had refused a love triangle.

From May 1916 Schiele served as a soldier in the provisions office of the prisoner- of- war camp in Mühling near Wieselburg in Lower Austria, and during this time he painted a single oil painting near Purgstall, The decaying mill , which he found in the Erlauftal valley and its owner, called up for military service, not repairs Could take care of floods.

Death mask

After his basic military training and the associated transfers, Schiele came back to Vienna in 1917, where he was initially employed as a clerk (military administrative clerk) for the " kuk Konsum-Anstalt for the gagists of the army in the field". He always met benevolent superiors who also gave him the opportunity for artistic work; “Wherever he was, his service was more than easy”. During this time he portrayed Russian prisoners of war and Austrian officers.

Nevertheless, Schiele felt that he was wrongly manned and made the following request to the army command: My occupation does not correspond to my artistic qualifications. I believe that there would be an opportunity for me to find appropriate employment and use as part of my military service in the Army Museum , so that my powers as a painter and artist do not have to lie idle and I could use what I can really do in my fatherland . At the beginning of 1917 he and Albert Paris Gütersloh were commissioned to select works by young artists for the “War Exhibition 1917” in the Vienna Prater .

Memorial plaque on the house of death

On April 29, 1918, he was posted to the Imperial and Royal Army Museum for a period of six months , where he and Anton Faistauer organized war picture exhibitions and pursued his painting. The director there, Wilhelm John , granted Schiele, who, after the years of service that had primarily been spent in the office up to now, "was eager to catch up on what had been missed", not only here but also his minor official duties, the freedom for his artistic work.

Gustav Klimt died on February 6, 1918. The next day Schiele made three drawings by Klimt in the death chamber of the General Hospital . At this point in time, Schiele rose in the Viennese art scene; the 49th exhibition of the Vienna Secession was dedicated to him. He exhibited 19 large paintings and 29 drawings . The picture "Edith Schiele sitting" was acquired by the director of the Modern Gallery (1915–1938), Franz Martin Haberditzl . Further exhibitions and successes followed, and Schiele's ideas about setting up an art school also emerged at this time. The evaluation of his work in the press was also increasingly positive.

Schiele last lived and worked since July 1918 in Alt-Hietzing , 13th, Wattmanngasse 6, closer to the district center. Towards the end of the war, in autumn 1918, the catastrophic Spanish flu hit the Austrian capital. Edith Schiele, six months pregnant, succumbed to this disease on October 28th in her apartment on Wattmanngasse. Egon Schiele was also infected and died, only 28 years old, on October 31, 1918 in the apartment of his wife's family in Vienna 13th , Hietzinger Hauptstrasse 114. The creation of his undated and unsigned painting "Kauerndes Menschenpaar (the family)" is incorrectly dated to the time between the day of Edith Schiele's death and the day of Egon Schiele's death. In fact, the picture was probably made in 1917/1918. It was first published in March 1918 on the occasion of the XLIX. Exhibition of the Vienna Secession shown to the public.

Egon Schiele was buried next to his wife in an honorary grave in the Ober-St.-Veiter Friedhof (group B, row 10, number 15/16) in his last residential district in Vienna. In 1968 his sister-in-law Adele Harms, who died at the age of 78, was also buried here.

Afterlife

In 1930, Egon-Schiele-Gasse was named after the artist in the Lockerwiese settlement built between 1928 and 1932 in the Lainz district of Vienna's 13th district. After the end of the Second World War, international recognition and the exhibition of Schiele's works also increased significantly. In 1945, for example, an exhibition took place in the St. Etienne Gallery in New York. The Academy of Fine Arts Vienna showed a work exhibition in 1948. In 1964 there was an extraordinarily large response from exhibitions in Boston , Florence and New York. In the same year, works by Egon Schiele were exhibited in the hand drawings department at documenta 3 in Kassel .

On April 24, 1990, the Austrian 500 Schilling commemorative coin Egon Schiele in silver, designed by Thomas Pesendorfer, was released. On the front you can see the portrait of the artist with his name in the form of his well-known signature, on the back a picture of one of his later works: "Mother with two children".

A large number of Schiele's works came into the possession of the Jewish dentist and art collector Heinrich Rieger from 1914 through purchase or in exchange for dental treatment . His Rieger Collection was “ Aryanized ” after the National Socialists came to power in Austria . A large part of Schiele's work from this collection has been lost to this day and is the subject of extensive provenance research .

Schiele's works fetch top prices at international auctions today. His pictures are in great demand in museums around the world, because despite his artistic ingenuity, Schiele's reputation for being an "early completion" admirer. The largest collections of Schiele works can be found in Viennese museums such as the Leopold Museum , the Belvedere , the Albertina and the Kunsthaus Zug in Switzerland. In addition to numerous self-portraits, Schiele is best known for his nudes, which almost exclusively show women and children. But his landscape and city images are also enjoying growing popularity.

In 1964, his works were shown at documenta 3 in Kassel in the hand drawings department .
