Robert Hammerstiel
Winterreise

1996

About the Item

In his painting, Robert Hammerstiel is in constant search of the balance and harmony of form. In his drastic reduction to the physical essentials and the colourful placarding, he creates an incomparable tension, which, however, always remains in balance in his compositions. It is a play with that tension that Hammerstiel brilliantly pushes to the extreme. The depiction of the figures is drastically reduced to the essential and thus left to complete anonymity, the colours are strikingly bright. The artist about his drawing: "For me, the drawing is the foundation of my work. I always look at the drawing first to know if the painting is also good. To me, the drawing is like a mother carrying her child into life. There's a saying: "The apple doesn't fall far from the tree." It's the same in art: the apple is the painting, but the drawing is the trunk." Quote from hammerstiel-website

    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...
