Fighter
by Egon Schiele, 1913, gouache and graphite, 19'4 x 12. Private collection.

Compare this image to Le Brun's Study for Mucius Scaevola Before Porsenna. In the Le Brun, the subject is carrying something. In Schiele, the load is impliedóor inside. "This is very introspective," says Rubenstein. "The coiled-up tension, the head wrenched around to look right at you, the elongated torso. He looks feral"

Austrian-born Egon Schiele (1890~1918) was a dandy cloaked in Bohemian clothes, a supposed pornographer, a determined narcissist, and one of the most provocative and singular draftsmen of the modern age. "Compared to, say, Rembrandt, there's not a lot of range," says Rubenstein. "But you always know if something is a Schiele. How does this happen? That's worth thinking about."
"All of his exaggerations are thoughtful," adds Rubenstein. "His distortions are on the moneyóthe indentation of a hip, the swell of the haunch, a line that is clearly ham-strings. The distortions are based on very accurate anatomical landmarks. That's what makes them so disturbing. That, and the fact that the skeleton is often very present."
Schiele was maligned for some of his explicit drawings of underaged girls, but the dismissal of all his erotic art may be a mistake. Rubenstein points out that not everyone can accomplish the erotic successfully. Schiele's art challenges through not only its subject matter but also in the positions of his subjects, the wandering lines that vibrate with tension, and the boisterous colors he employed. "Look at the red next to the green running through the figure in Fighter, says Rubenstein. "It speaks of something unspeakable." Eitel-Porter concurs, "His use of unnatural colors and his gestural application of paint, with visible strokes to emphasize expression, sets Schiele apart."

"Note how he used variety and expressivity of line to convey emotions and feelings," says Eitel-Porter.

您在藝術領域涉獵十分的廣泛

席勒的生命雖然短暫

留下的作品卻使他在藝術界占有一席之地

這也是古人所說的三不朽之一的表現

席勒素描,有稜有角,極有個性。

PS. 這幾篇素描評介,可不是我寫的。這部落格部分功能是當個剪貼簿,給自己欣賞高興用。
