Oskar Kokoschka
The creator has a duty to release what darkens the mind of man.
Master of the hidden meaning and internal purpose of cities, things and people, Oskar Kokoschka is born in Poechlarn (Austria) in 1886. He attends the School of Decorative Arts in Vienna (1904-1909). Friend and fellow student of Egon Schiele, he is influenced by Klimt. Kokoschka works in the very famous "Viennese Workshops" founded by the architect Josef . . .

Stamp by Oskar Kokoschka
The publication of a postal stamp is often a homage paid by a nation to a place, an event, a remarkable cause or a character which count. The painters and other artists do not escape from this rule. Some are however "forgotten" of postal art. Here, gathered below (French or foreign), emitted stamps (206) or simple studies of stamp (224) in homage to the artists represented on our website. The first French stamp was emitted in 1849, England preceded us by ten years. There is often a share of voyage in this small form of shape paper. The stamp circulates, sails, flies away, it makes dream, then dream a little. M.C.
When the stamp is really emitted, the artist name is preceded of an asterisk (*). It is certain that we do not know each stamp emitted for such or such artist; do not hesitate with us to make known them!

A tribute to Oskar Kokoschka
Sorry this section is only available in french for now.
Oskar Kokoschka s’établit définitivement en Suisse en 1953, à Villeneuve où il passe les vingt-sept dernières années de sa vie ; il a 94 ans lorsqu’il s’y éteint le 22 février 1980. Il repose dans le cimetière de Clarens (Suisse, Canton de Waad). Une Fondation Oskar Kokoschka (Musée Jenisch) sera créée à Vevey en 1987 par la veuve de l’artiste. En hommage à sa mémoire, la fleur d’un ibiscus rose.
"La peinture, c’est allumer un feu." - Oskar Kokoschka
"Poussé par la curiosité ou les persécutions, Kokoschka fut un artiste nomade, s’attachant à porter témoignage des lieux et des hommes de son temps. En près d’un siècle de vie, il en aura plus que quiconque reflété les embrasements." - Gérard-Georges Lemaire
"Par-delà les récifs noirs / Se précipite ivre de mort / La fiancée du vent embrassé." - Georg Trakl, poète
"Je ne voyage pas avec l’intention romantique de verser des larmes sur le passé." - Oskar Kokoschka
"Le corps ! Il faut prendre conscience de la chair au lieu de la satiner dans l’ornement." - Oskar Kokoschka
"Nous retrouvons dans ses oeuvres l’aspect inachevé, presque avorté qu’entraîne la fougue non mesurée, et surtout le sens caché et la raison interne des choses et des gens, extirpés et étalés en leur nudité par un esprit impitoyable." - Jacques Busse
