Helga Scholler
Liegender Akt auf rotem Polster

About the Item

The artist's modesty was probably an obstacle to her career. Her magnificent, expressive works have few equals in Austria, but the time has come for her work to be honoured anew after her death. The work of Helga Scholler, who was born in Leoben (Austria) in 1938, is entirely in the tradition of Austrian Expressionism of the Interwar period. In the design of the picture surfaces, Helga Scholler resorts to soft contours, which are determined by pure and contrasting areas of colour as a defining means of expression. The uniqueness of her work lies in the spontaneity of the pictorial realisation, which unfolds its full impact through the interplay of colourful intensity and compositional lightness. In particular, the painterly atmospheres of the city and country views bear witness to a cheerfulness that is rarely found.

Kreise
By Walter Strobl
Located in Wien, 9
Walter Strobl opens a new chapter in his explorations of the neverending tension between stillness and movement. Strobl´s vibrant nudes capture women in movement: they are there and gone again, letting the pictoral space pulsate with both the presence and absence of the outlines of their bodies. He paints women with a keen interest in the lived experience of the body, avoiding clichees in his depictions. The viewer is excluded from this inner sensation, but it is precisely the privacy of the model`s slumber that permits us to revel in our own proprioception. His cityscapes and still lives tell their...
