Schiele

In the organizer's words:

Bony, angular, twisted.

Writhing unsteadily in the space between pleasure and pain, eroticism and death - Egon Schiele's pictures show the existential crisis of the subject in times of great upheaval and expose the human body in irritating poses in a voyeuristic manner. The focus here is on the male nude, which in Schiele's work is androgynous, self-tormenting and often a symbol of the Passion of Christ in the tradition of medieval Pietà depictions. Ferenc Fehér quotes Schiele's anatomical alienations and fragmentations, which express the fragmentation of the individual, and bizarrely stages the painter between martyr, prophet and redeemer.
