Oskar Kokoschka earned his place in the canon of modernist resistance as the wild child of Viennese modernism; a versatile master of image and word, the progenitor of a much-imitated doll fetish, and an anti-fascist defamed by the Nazis as “degenerate”. In short, he was the epitome of the radical, political artist.
Kokoschka revisited: This publication is the outcome of an international conference held at the Oskar Kokoschka Center at the University of Applied Arts Vienna. It brings together contemporary research from the fields of art, cultural studies, contemporary history, literature and theater studies, gender studies, and biography studies. Based on recently discovered sources, it sheds new light on the life and work of this fascinating artist, and critically interrogates many of his most powerful narratives.
