ANTON HANAK (Bruenn 1875 - 1934 Vienna)
Male nude, 1921
ink/paper, 23,5 x 19,3 cm
signed Anton Hanak, dated 1921
ESTIMATE °€ 1600 - 3000
STARTING PRICE °€ 1600
Anton Hanak studied with Edmund Hellmer at the Vienna Academy and was a member of the Vienna Secession and the Wiener Werkstaette as well as a founding member of the Austrian Werkbund. Hanak was a teacher at the Vienna School of Applied Arts and from 1932 a professor at the Vienna Academy. Fritz Wotruba, Oskar Icha and Rudolf Reinhart, among others, learned from him. Between 1913 and 1916 he was in correspondence with the Graz artist Rita Passini. He created the sculptural decoration for several of Josef Hoffmann's buildings (including Villa Skywa-Primavesi, Landhaus Primavesi, Landhaus Ast) and in the 1920s for residential buildings in the municipality of Vienna. He is the author of numerous portrait busts and memorials, including the Sorrows Mother war memorial erected in 1925 in the Vienna Central Cemetery and the bust of Victor Adler for the Republic Monument. His works have a visionary and symbolic character with a certain proximity to Expressionism, for example "The Last Man" from 1917 or "The Burning Man" from 1922. "The Burning Man" is considered an icon of modern sculpture in Austria. Anton Hanak also created a design for a monument to Gustav Mahler in Schwarzenbergplatz, Vienna.
