Description
Oskar Kokoschka: A Life in Art This biography offers a fascinating and nuanced portrait of the Austrian artist Oskar Kokoschka, tracing his complex and multifaceted career from his early days as a provocative figure to his later success as a cosmopolitan and influential artist. Kokoschka's artistic range was remarkable, encompassing expressionistic portraits and landscapes, as well as achievements in playwriting, essayism, and poetry. His passion for music and teaching led him to establish the School of Seeing, an unconventional art school that aimed to revive humanist ideals after war. This biography shows how Kokoschka's diverse interests cohered into a richly creative life, one that continues to be relevant today.
