Bela Kadar
Béla Kádár was a Hungarian painter influenced by Der Blaue Reiter, Cubism, Futurism, Neo-Primitivism, Constructivism and Metaphysical painting. Born in Budapest on June 14, 1877, Kádár became a distinctive modernist painter whose career spanned several decades. Kádár began his studies in 1896 and for this, he traveled to Paris and Munich. He attended the Academy of Fine Arts in Budapest and won the Kohner prize in 1910. Kádár's early works, which he began exhibiting in 1918, showed the influence of the Secessionists and Post-impressionists. In 1923, he exhibited with his friend Hugó Scheiber in Berlin at Walden’s Sturm Gallery and 57 of his works were shown. Der Sturm was one of the most important avant-garde galleries in Europe and Kádár continued to exhibit there for several years. Kádár traveled to the United States and stayed for a year. He exhibited with the Société Anonyme at the Brooklyn Museum. In 1929, he returned to Budapest to exhibit his works in his home country. Kádár was personal friends with Chagall, Picasso, Kandinsky and Kokoschka. Like his contemporaries, his style evolved through the decades of the 20th century. His subjects range from Hungarian legends, metaphysical, portraits and fanciful decorative themes. Kádár's place in the history of Modern Art has been assured by the publication of two books on his life and works. Kádár died on January 22, 1956, in Budapest.

FEDOR LOEVENSTEIN LOWENSTEIN 1901-1947
(Czech / French)
Title: Beggars / Bettler, early 1920’s
Technique: Original Hand Signed, Inscribed, Dedicated and Titled Woodcut on thin wove paper
Paper Size: 28.5 x 20.5 cm / 11.3 x 8 in
Plate Size: 15 x 10 cm / 5.9 x 3.9 in
Additional Information: This work is hand signed and dated in pencil by the artist "F. Loevenstein 22" at the lower right margin.
It is also tilted "Bettler" (Beggars) and inscribed "Handabzug" (Hand printed) in pencil at the lower left margins.
It is dedicated “pour ma chere et jamais ce debacle, Fedor, Zoppot Sommer 22” (for my dear never this debacle [sic], Fedor, Sopot (Poland) Summer (19)22.)
This work was hand printed by the artist himself in the early 1920's in a small edition.
Originally from Czechoslovakia, Fédor Löwenstein (Munich, 1901 - Nice, 1946) studied art in Germany before moving to Paris in 1923, attracted by its artistic influence. There he mixed with the painter André Lhote from Bordeaux and joined the Groupe des Surindépendants in 1936.
His style evolved from Cubism to a form of Romantic abstraction. In 1938, he painted La Chute (The Fall), inspired by the signing of the Munich Agreement ratifying the dismantling of the Czechoslovakia created in 1918. France’s entry into the war drove him to leave the capital for Mirmande, a ruined village in the Drôme region, where Lhote held a summer academy. Löwenstein then divided his time between Mirmande and Nice where his mother and sister lived, but had to take refuge for a time in the Abbey of Aiguebelle. He fell ill in the autumn of 1943 and went to Paris to see a doctor; he died in Nice in 1946.
