Oskar Kokoschka was indeed an Austrian painter, poet, writer, and teacher who is most known for his powerful expressionistic portraiture and landscapes, as well as his vision concepts that inspired the Viennese Expressionist movement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Education<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

After being intrigued by some of Kokoschka’s drawings, one of his instructors advised that he pursue a career in the fine arts. Kokoschka applied to the Kunstgewerbeschule in Vienna, which is now the University of Applied Arts Vienna, against his father’s wishes. He was one of the few applicants to be approved for a scholarship. The Vienna Kunstgewerbeschule was a forward-thinking applied arts school that specialised in architecture, furniture, crafts, and contemporary design. The Kunstgewerbeschule, unlike the more prestigious and conventional Academy of Fine Arts Vienna, was controlled by Vienna Secession educators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nude with Back Turned’, ink, gouache and chalk drawing by\u00a0Oskar Kokoschka, c. 1907 https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/File:%27Nude_with_Back_Turned%27,_ink,_gouache_and_chalk_drawing_by_Oskar_Kokoschka,_c._1907.jpg<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

I chose an artist whose work I didn’t really enjoy because I believe it is important to learn about and analyse many styles of art throughout history. I dislike these two pieces of his work in particular; while “Veronica’s Veil” is fascinating and has some significance, and the media utilised are not dull, the nude guy with his back turned is meaningless to me, and the drawing is unsymmetrical and uninteresting. I don’t think he’s a really talented painter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
