Egon Schiele (1890–1918) is considered to be one of the pioneers of Austrian modernism together with Gustav Klimt and Oskar Kokoschka. Coinciding with the start of the commemoration of the centenary of his death, this volume will approach Schiele’s fascinating works from a new perspective and will also introduce a paradigm change in the interpretation of his oeuvre.

Inspiration from Schiele’s private circumstances as well as from the art of antiquity, the Byzantine period and even the age of the Baroque will help to provide the key to understanding Schiele’s pictorial allegories, which have remained enigmatic to this day. In the light of the latest Schiele research the artist will no longer be presented as the disturbingly penetrating portraitist of existential loneliness, but at the same time also as a champion of lofty ethics and passionate spirituality.

 - New approaches to the interpretation of Schiele's allegorically encoded works
 -  A unique overview of Schiele's development as a graphic artist and watercolourist
 -  To mark the centenary of Schiele's death in 2018: with works from the Albertina, complited by prestigious loans

In this comprehensive and lavish volume, a renowned authority on Egon Schiele focuses on the artist’s images of women, offering new and revelatory perspectives.

During his brief yet prolific career, Egon Schiele created hundreds of drawings, watercolours, and oil paintings of the women in his life. His work is generally regarded as expressionistic, emotional, intense, autobiographical, and highly sexual. In this elegant and beautifully illustrated book, Jane Kallir examines Schiele’s depictions of women to argue that there is more to these images than we realize.

Drawing from the latest research as well as her own exhaustive familiarity with Schiele’s entire oeuvre, Kallir explores four distinct periods, each characterized by a single figure or series of women: the artist’s mother and sisters; the often anonymous models of the "breakthrough" years, 1910–11; his lover, Wally Neuzil; and his wife, Edith, and her sister, Adele.

Weaving together historical context, biographical information, and observations of the works, Kallir demonstrates how these women relate not only to Schiele’s development but to the larger issue of feminine representation.

Kallir offers a panoply of significant insights into a central aspect of the artist’s achievement, which has never before been the subject of a focused study. Schiele’s fans will treasure this beautiful and groundbreaking addition to the literature on this important artist.

Vienna's controversial prodigy

Expressive nudes, strange movements
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Egon Schiele (1890-1918) is the painter who had the most long-lasting influence on the Vienna art scene after the great era of Klimt came to a close. After a short flirtation with the style of Klimt, his mentor, Schiele soon questioned the aesthetic orientation to the beautiful surface of the Viennese Art Nouveau with his rough and not easily accessible paintings.

Many contemporaries found Schiele's expressive nudes and self-portraits, with their strange movements and morbid colours, to be ugly and even morally objectionable - criticism which culminated in criminalizing the painter as 'obscene' and resulted in 1912 in an indictment and short jail sentence. However, not even his harshest critics could dispute the artist's extraordinary drawing talent. This book gives a concise overview of the brief, brilliant career of Egon Schiele.

Around 1900, the Viennese Secession and the Wiener Werkstätte turned Vienna into the birthplace of modernism. This opulent publication on Viennese modernism (1890–1918) focuses on famous ornamental works by Gustav Klimt, erotic depictions of the body by Egon Schiele, and works by other artists, architects, furniture designers, and craftspeople from the Viennese Secession and the Wiener Werkstätte. Adolf Loos, Otto Wagner, Koloman Moser, Joseph Maria Olbrich, and Josef Hoffmann count among the most prominent representatives of this period. Early works by Oskar Kokoschka, oil paintings by Richard Gerstl, and several paintings by Arnold Schönberg are also featured in this volume. The painterly ornamentation of paintings, as well as objects and designs from the Wiener Werkstätte, clearly demonstrate how the artists made reference to one another. The close cooperation among all of these artists involved a new concept of art, that of the Gesamtkunstwerk, which continued to be developed later at the Bauhaus and in the De Stijl movement.

TASCHEN's 25th anniversary - Special edition! Large-format hardcover edition! "Art cannot be modern. Art is primordially eternal." Egon Schiele "Hindering the artist is a crime," wrote Egon Schiele in 1912. At the time he was in prison for disseminating immoral drawings. Throughout his work the note of defiance, provocation, and rebellion was sounded. Schiele's favorite subjects were female nudes and self-portraits, and he worked at his art with furious commitment, though it was not until shortly before his early death that he began to win real recognition. Today, with Oskar Kokoschka, he is seen as the most important of the Austrian artists who came after Klimt. This study examines the life and work of Egon Schiele through all the major oil paintings and many of his erotic drawings.

Книга об австрийском живописце, рисовальщике, представителе экспрессионизма Эгоне Шиле (1890–1918).

В его раннем творчестве сказывается влияние постимпрессионизма, а в трактовке одежд - Густава Климта. С 1910 года художник отказался от стилистики модерна и стал работать в экспрессионистской манере с оттенком символизма. Картины Шиле того периода с изображением обнаженных девушек являлись настолько откровенными, что были сочтены аморальными, и художник даже был подвергнут на некоторое время аресту. Шиле писал очень много автопортретов. Около сотни автопортретов демонстрируют не только то, что Шиле с огромным вниманием наблюдает за собой, но также предполагает в художнике черту, которую можно считать нарциссизмом. Ему нравилось фиксировать свой облик и позы. Существует множество его обнаженных автопортретов. Друзья Шиле вовсе не описывают его как разнузданного эротомана; и в его часто неприглядной, вымученной наготе чрезмерное выделение эротического начала было бы ошибкой. Что кажется более важным (и это находит подтверждение в его письмах и стихах) – это тот факт, что Шиле придавал большое значение пониманию и изучению своего «я». Это изучение не было для него чем-то мистическим, нематериальным; это, скорее, был способ локализовать энергию, высвобождающуюся посредством тела как духовной субстанции.

Издание состоит из пяти глав, рассказывающих о жизни художника и об истории создания каждой картины, представленной в издании. В конце книги приводится летопись жизни и творчества мастера, проиллюстрированная документальными фотографиями.
