Felix Waske
Preisung der Unzucht II

1971

About the Item

Signed, dated and titled lower left. Felix Waske was born in Vienna in 1942. From 1958 to 1967, he studied at the University of Applied Arts under Prof Eduard Bäumer and at the Academy of Fine Arts under Prof Max Weiler. He lived in Ibiza as a freelance painter from 1967 to 1977. In 1977 he returned to Vienna, where he currently works. His artistic language is characterised by the attention to detail and care that the artist devotes to his works - a decisive feature that primarily reveals itself to the viewer. He fills the pictorial space with strange zoomorphic figures and bizarre hermaphrodites, revealing to the viewer a fascinating visual world full of fantasy-laden creatures and unknown meanings.

Jünglinge / Youths
Located in Wien, 9
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...
