Wir danken Alfred Weidinger, Leipzig, für freundliche Informationen. Das Aquarell wird in den dritten Band des in Vorbereitung befindlichen Werkverzeichnisses der Zeichnungen und Aquarelle Oskar Kokoschkas aufgenommen. Provenienz Im Kinsky, Wien, 84. Auktion Klassische Moderne, 10. Mai 2011, Lot 75; Privatsammlung Norddeutschland Das Spätwerk Oskar Kokoschkas ist geprägt von der spontanen, unmittelbaren Technik der Aquarellmalerei. Die zarten, frischen Farben der Naturvorbilder, die er in seinem Garten am Genfer See findet, fängt er in Blumenstillleben und Landschaftsansichten ein. Auch das vorliegende Blumenstillleben ist von ungekünstelter Unmittelbarkeit und großem koloristischen Reichtum. Wir sehen kein aufwendiges Bouquet, sondern die lebendige Unordnung schlichter Gartenblumen, die in einer nur schemenhaft erkennbaren Glasvase zusammengestellt wurden. In leichten, sicheren Pinselstrichen erfasst der Maler die unterschiedliche Haptik der Pflanzen: die samtigen violetten Blütenblätter einer Waldrebe oben links, die feste gelbe Blüte des Mädchenauges mittig vorne, deren gezackte Blütenblätter von dunklen Umrisslinien eingefasst werden, oder den holzigen Zweig rechts, von dem schmale grüne Blätter und weiche magentafarbene Blüten herabhängen. Oskar Kokoschka Blumenstillleben Watercolour on drawing paper. 58 x 41.8 cm. Framed under glass. Signed and dated 'OKokoschka 1963' in pencil lower right. - Slightly browned overall, firmly laid down on support card. We would like to thank Alfred Weidinger, Leipzig, for kind information. The watercolour will be included in the third volume of the forthcoming catalogue raisonné of drawings and watercolours by Oskar Kokoschka. Provenance Im Kinsky, Vienna, 84th auction Klassische Moderne, 10 May 2011, lot 75; Private collection, North Germany Oskar Kokoschka's late work is characterised by the spontaneous, direct technique of watercolour painting. He captures the delicate, fresh colours of models in nature, found in his garden near Lake Geneva, in still lifes of flowers and landscape views. The floral still life shown here is also of an unaffected immediacy of great colouristic richness. We do not see an elaborate bouquet, but the lively disorder of simple garden flowers, which have been put together in a glass vase that is only visible as a blur. The painter captures the different haptics of the plants in light, confident brush strokes: the velvety violet petals of a clematis in the upper left corner, the firm yellow bloom of the coreopsis in the front centre, of which the serrated petals are framed by dark outlines, or the woody branch on the right, from which narrow green leaves and soft magenta-coloured flowers hang.
