  • Japanese Aesthetics and Gustav Klimt: in Pursuit of a New Voice Svitlana Shiells
    Strand 2. Art Nouveau and Politics in the Dawn of Globalisation Japanese Aesthetics and Gustav Klimt: In Pursuit of a New Voice Svitlana Shiells Abstract At the end of the nineteenth century, Japonisme—an artistic lingua franca—became one of the most organic, overarching components of Gustav Klimt’s new art. This paper draws parallels between Gustav Klimt’s Portrait of Sonja Knips and It ō Jakuch ū’s print Golden Pheasant and Bamboo in Snow . The discovery of an unexpectedly close dialogue between Klimt and Jakuch ū and the striking similarity of the formal language of the two works supports the paper’s thesis that It ō Jakuch ū’s print is the primary source of influence behind the conception and execution of the portrait and, by extension, that Klimt’s engagement with Japanese stimuli is one of the main engines behind his creative pursuit, starting at the end of the 1890s. This discovery challenges preconceived notions and existing concepts and illustrates the impossibility of understanding Klimt’s heritage comprehensively and adequately without examining the role of Japonisme in it. Keywords: Gustav Klimt, Japonisme, It ō Jakuch ū, the Vienna Secession, ukiyo-e prints. 1 In the wake of the World Fair of 1873 in Vienna, a strong wave of Japonisme permanently re- shaped the capital of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. According to Hermann Bahr, the Viennese encountered the presence of “Japonisme in all the arts,” which were “impossible to understand without bearing in mind the influence of Japanese art.” 1 Japonisme indeed became a Zeitgeist in fin de siècle Vienna and, in the visual arts, Gustav Klimt was its main advocate.

  • Klirnt and Schiele Stephan Kleinschuster May 6, 1997 AR592
    The Evolution of Expressionism In Turn-of-the-Century Vienna: Klirnt and Schiele Stephan Kleinschuster May 6, 1997 AR592 1 1 Until 1897, Classicism in Viennese high art had served as a mimetic construct of the elite society who were both art's staunchest supporters and the purveyors of moral and philosophical values that served as it's staple of judgment. In the following years, from 1898 to 1918, were revolutions of both natures, political and philosophical. The artistic transformation from the Classicism of the Habsburg Monarchy to the expressionism of the Cafe "Nihilism" could be seen most obviously in two of Vienna's foremost artists of the time, Gustav Klimt and Egon Schiele. This paper seeks to compare and contrast the works of these two artists who seem to crystallize the moral, social, political, and artistic upheaval of early Twentieth Century Vienna. It lS fitting that Gustav Klimt and Egon Schiele died six months from one another, both of the Spanish influenza, and both in 1918. It is important to note that even though stylistic variables call for their ultimate contrast, they loved and admired one another, and they both stood for the values that defined Secessionism. Their proximity in philosophy makes it all the more profound to discover their differences. In Klimt came classical objectivity housed in a contemporary conceptual framework. In Schiele came the shift to brutal subjectivity that pushed the limits of this framework. Even though, as will be discussed, the similarity of the subject matter seems to remain a constant, the execution becomes the variable upon which the change becomes dependent.

  • Viennese Art, Ugliness, and the Vienna School of Art History: the Vicissitudes of Theory and Practice
    Viennese art, ugliness, and the Vienna school of art history: the vicissitudes of theory and practice Kathryn Simpson Around 1900 in Vienna, the concept of ugliness developed a new significance in both art theory and practice. The theorists of the Vienna school of art history, including Franz Wickhoff, Alois Riegl, and later Otto Benesch and Max Dvoř{k, rejected the scholarly tradition of Germanic contemporaries like renowned art historian Heinrich Wölfflin, who championed classical art as the highest aesthetic good. By contrast the Vienna school art historians opposed absolute aesthetics and its insistence that a specifically classical beauty was the goal of all art.1 At the dawn of the twentieth century, Wickhoff and Riegl both presented radically new theories arguing for a revaluation of aesthetic values, a non-hierarchical relationship between so-called beauty and ugliness, and the importance of developing an art that was appropriate for the age. Ugliness was suddenly spotlighted in Viennese artistic practice as well. Gustav Klimt was the undisputed king of the Viennese art scene; he had inherited the throne from the revered history painter, designer, and decorator Hans Makart, whose sensual, decorative sensibility had defined late-nineteenth-century tastes in Vienna, giving rise to the term Makartstil, or ‘Makart style.’ After three years as the leader of the Vienna Secession movement, Klimt produced a series of works of art which enraged sectors of the intellectual establishment and the general public, who reacted in particular to the purported ugliness of Klimt’s latest visions. Yet shortly thereafter young Viennese artists eager to lead what they called the ‘new art’ movement began to develop deliberate strategies of ugliness to help create and buttress their own antagonistic artistic personae.

  • The Demise of the World of the Gutnajers: the Warsaw Art Market in World War II
    The Demise of the World of the Gutnajers: The Warsaw Art Market in World War II Nawojka Ciesli´ nska-Lobkowicz´ Downloaded from https://academic.oup.com/hgs/article-abstract/33/3/333/5702591 by University of Cambridge user on 11 February 2020 Warsaw/Starnberg A substantial number of Jewish art and antiques dealers operated in pre-World War II Warsaw. Particularly respected were the salons of the brothers Bernard and Abe Gutnajer. Virtually everyone in their milieu perished in the Warsaw ghetto or Treblinka. Taking their place were new “Aryan” dealers and a clientele of “new” money. The Warsaw art market under the German occupation experienced a particular growth between the start of the Jewish ghetto’s liquidation in mid-1942 and the outbreak of the Warsaw Uprising in August 1944, as “abandoned” property flooded the market. After decades of subsequent turbulent history, researchers can hardly hope to document the provenance of more than a fraction of tens of thousands of surviving works of art and valuable antiques. We are looking at a group portrait of three men1 whose poses suggest that they are family, probably brothers. Elegantly dressed, they face the camera with composure. The man on the left, balding slightly, sports an impressive moustache and the bi-colored sash of a professional association along with a large pearl tie pin. He is the eldest. The middle brother stands on the right, a badge in his lapel, his left hand holding a roll or a thin tube that extends beyond the frame. The youngest brother doi:10.1093/hgs/dcz041 Holocaust and Genocide Studies 33, no.
