Breast, 1934. – „Drtikol studied photography in Munich, and set up a highly commercial studio in Prague in 1910, specializing in portraits and nudes. ‚Zena ve svetle‘ is a typical of his Art Deco phase, and just as Art Deco proper derived from Art Nouveau, the photographer’s earlier nudes were Photo Secessionist in style, favouring heavily worked bromoil and gum prints. The only thing that changed when he went ‚modernist‘ was the creation of geometrically shaped plywood sets composed of angular and circular forms, which he lit dramatically with a single arc lamp. He shot his models from dynamic viewpoints, and sometimes his imagery plays arround with mock-Cubist effects, but usually he gives us the style rather than the substance of modernism. … Drtikol remained a consistent and obsessive photographer of the female nude, his artistic persona managing to convey both a muscular heterosexuality and a formalist asexuality. These are quite clearly ‚artistic‘ nudes, and remain extremely popular to this day“ (Parr/Badger zu „Zena ve Svetle“). – „Paradox muss erscheinen, dass sich unter jenen, die auf dem Weg am sezessionistischen Piktorialismus zur Avantgarde am weitesten vordrangen, Frantisek Drtikol befindet, der in den 20er Jahren häufig für einen konservativen Vertreter des Symbolismus und der Sezession gehalten wurde. Heute sehen wir, dass Drtikol, obwohl im Radikalismus und linke Utopien der meisten Avantgarde-künstler ebenso fremd waren wie ihre Neigung zum Experiment, in vielen seiner Werke der Avantgarde näher stand, als deren Vertreter bereit waren zuzugeben“ (V. Birgus in Koetzle). – Flügelmappe etwas angestaubt, sonst gut erhalten. – Folder slightly dusty, otherwise in good condition.
