Franz Wiegele (Austrian, 1887-1944), Portrait of Frau Z.
Est: $10,000 - $20,000
Franz Wiegele (Austrian, 1887-1944), Portrait of Frau Z. oil on canvas, signed at lower right, circa 1919-1920, framed. Stretcher size 21 1/2 x 15 3/4 in.; Frame dimensions 27 x 21 3/8 in. Franz Wiegele was a founding member of the "Neukunstgruppe" (New Art Group), alongside his friend and fellow modernist, Egon Schiele. His formal training was completed at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna, but his greatest influence came from his travels throughout Europe and North Africa, along with his friendships with other painters and intellectuals. In 1927, he returned to his birthplace, NÃ¶tsch. Here, a group of avant-garde artists including Anton Kolig, Sebastian Isepp and Anton Mahringer, established an artists' enclave. Wiegele's works were included in numerous exhibitions during his lifetime, including the Carnegie International Exhibition in Pittsburg in 1929 and the Venice Biennial in 1932. Max Roden (Rosenzweig) (1881-1968) was born in Vienna on July 21st, 1881. Despite his formal studies in mathematics, chemistry and physics, he found work and success as an editor and art critic for Ãsterreichische Volks-Zeitung. Roden was particularly interested in the work of the Austrian modernists and was an important collector of works by Egon Schiele, Oskar Kokoschka and others. In 1938, he and his wife, Sascha Kronburg were forced to flee Vienna. They settled in New York where he found work again as a journalist. In 1961 he was honored with the "Verdienstkreuz fÃ¼r Wissenschaft und Kunst" (Cross of Merit for Science and Art) from the Republic of Austria.

Wiegele, Franz: Sitzende Frau
Est: €300 - €450
Sitzende Frau Bleistift, teils gewischt, auf Velin. 1922. 21 x 17 cm. Unten rechts mit Bleistift signiert "Wiegele" und datiert. Wiegele gehörte mit seinen Porträts und weiblichen Aktmalereien zu den Wegbereitern der Modernen Malerei in Österreich. Ein Kommilitone Wiegeles an der Wiener Akademie war Egon Schiele, mit dem er bis zu dessen frühem Tod in Kontakt blieb. Aus Unzufriedenheit über den etablierten Lehr- und Kunstbetrieb bildete Schiele 1909 gemeinsam mit anderen Studenten die für die österreichische Moderne maßgebliche "Neukunstgruppe", zu deren Gründungsmitgliedern auch Franz Wiegele gehörte. Seit 1917 lebte Wiegele für zehn Jahre als freischaffender Künstler in der Schweiz; während dieser Zeit entstand die mit lockerer Hand ausgeführte Studie "Sitzende Frau". - Wir bitten darum, Zustandsberichte zu den Losen zu erfragen, da der Erhaltungszustand nur in Ausnahmefällen im Katalog angegeben ist. - Please ask for condition reports for individual lots, as the condition is usually not mentioned in the catalogue.
