About the Item

signiert links unten, monogrammiert, datiert und betitelt rechts unten, mit Beschriftung versehen: "Herrn und Frau Malchus mit besten Grüßen" Carry Hauser ist einer der faszinierendsten Künstler Österreichs des 20. Jahrhunderts, der über einen sehr langen Zeitraum in unterschiedlichen Stilen relevante Arbeiten geschaffen hat. Von Cary Hauser gibt es spannende expressive, kubistische und neusachliche Arbeiten. Im hohen Alter wendet er sich Afrika zu und verliebt sich in die Ursprünglichkeit des Kontinents und seiner Bewohner. Der 1895 in Wien geborene Carry Hauser gilt heutzutage als Vorreiter der Moderne. Als bildender Künstler und Schriftsteller hinterließ er ein vielseitiges Werk, das sich durch sein kontinuierliches humanes Engagement auszeichnet. Neben Malereien, Zeichnungen und Grafiken, entwarf er Bühnenbilder und Werbeplakate, verfasste Essays und Romane und schuf monumentale Wandarbeiten im urbanen Raum. Ab den 1960er Jahren unternimmt Carry Hauser regelmäßige Reisen nach Kroatien, Israel und vor allem nach Afrika. Auf diesen Reisen entstanden nicht nur zahlreiche Skizzen, in denen er die Natur und die Menschen vor Ort festhält, sondern auch dieses eindringliche Doppelporträt, das durch seine intensive Farbakzentuierung als ein klassisches Spätwerk Carry Hausers gilt. Die Unterwasserszene zeigt zwei junge Burschen neben Fischen im Wasser, wobei sich Mensch und Tier durch geöffneten Mund und Augen angleichen und eine wunderbare Symbiose ergeben. Carry Hauser suchte und fand in Afrika jene Ursprünglichkeit im Ausdruckt, die er in Wien nicht mehr fand. Seine Darstellungen afrikanischer Kinder sind ein später Höhepunkt in seinem Schaffen und verbinden vollkommen neue Motive, mit der Kraft seines Frühwerks. Hausers Arbeiten befinden sich heute in zahlreichen Museen und Sammlungen, so etwa im Belvedere, der Albertina und dem Tiroler Landesmuseum in Innsbruck. Er gewann etliche Preise wie die Silberne Medaille der Internationalen Ausstellung in Barcelona, die goldene Ehrenmedaille und den Ehrenring der Stadt Wien.

    Franz Rogler (1921 -1994) studied wood and stone sculpture with Wilhelm Gösser at the Graz School of Applied Arts and attended the master class for painting with Rudolf Szyszkowitz. During his studies he was drafted for military service and, together with fellow artist Hans Fronius, was deployed as a war painter in Austria, Germany, Italy, the former Yugoslavia, Greece and Russia. During this time he completed studies at the Academy in Zagreb and organised exhibitions in Austria. In 1944 he deserted and managed to escape to Switzerland, where he settled in Basel after his internment and came into contact with the Swiss Surrealists of "Group 33" and with the artists Hans Arp, Max Ernst and Meret Oppenheim through his friend Regula Weilenmann. After the end of the war, he studied at the Basel Art School with Walter Bodmer and Heinrich Müller, which introduced him to Constructivist art. In 1947 Rogler returned to Graz and became a member of the Graz Secession. From 1948 to 1950 he studied at the Vienna Academy with Albert Paris Gütersloh, before returning to Graz as a freelance artist in 1950. In 1953 he received the Art Prize of the City of Graz and his works were published in the first issue of the "Surrealist Publications" edited by Edgar Jené and Paul Celan...
