Location: Upper BelvedereLocation: Upper BelvedereAlthough Frankl is not unknown in Austrian modernism and, due to his stays with Anton Kolig in Carinthia of several months, is frequently associated with the Circle of Nötsch, his œuvre, which combines tradition and a modern approach, has not yet been duly recognised. Frankl, an avowed admirer of Cézanne and sensitive artist constantly plagued by doubt, went in a restless search of formal innovation.The œuvre of the self-taught artist, who developed is work independently, is marked by numerous stylistic shifts. Restrained Expressionist solutions exist side by side with nervous and more liberal ones; Cubist approaches can be found next to a reduced language of form rife with abstract moments. Frankl’s art culminated in his form-dissolving, immaterial works devoted to Alpine subject matter.
Exhibitions within the series Masterpieces in Focus are made possible thanks to the Dorotheum’s generous support.
