The Cult of Egon Schiele

Although he only lived to be 28 years old, Egon Schiele was one of the most talented figurative painters of the 20th century. He was a protégé of Gustav Klimt, and his work is noted for its intensity and raw sexuality. His numerous self-portraits have taken on a cult status since his early death in October 1918.

The twisted body shapes and the expressive line that characterize Schiele's paintings and drawings mark the artist as an early exponent of Expressionism.











 On June 21, 2013, Auctionata in Berlin sold a watercolor from 1916, Reclining Woman at an online auction for €1.827 million (US $2.418 million).

This is a world record for the most expensive work of art ever sold at an online auction.

Robert Mapplethorpe X,Y & Z Portfolios

 Robert Mapplethorpe was an American photographer, known for his sometimes controversial large-scale, highly stylized black and white photography.
Robert Mapplethorpe, Self-portrait 1980
His work featured an array of subjects, including celebrity portraits, male and female nudes, self-portraits and still-life images of flowers. His most controversial work is that of the underground bondage and sadomasochistic (BDSM) scene in the late 1960s and early 1970s in New York City. The homo-eroticism of this work fueled a national debate over the public funding of controversial artwork.

Smith was a longtime roommate of Mapplethorpe and a frequent subject in his photography, including a stark, iconic photograph that appears on the cover of Smith's first album, Horses.
She wrote of him...

Robert took areas of dark human consent and made them into art. He worked without apology, investing the homosexual with grandeur, masculinity, and enviable nobility. Without affectation, he created a presence that was wholly male without sacrificing feminine grace. He was not looking to make a political statement or an announcement of his evolving sexual persuasion. He was presenting something new, something not seen or explored as he saw and explored it. Robert sought to elevate aspects of male experience, to imbue homosexuality with mysticism. As Cocteau said of a Genet poem, "His obscenity is never obscene."
—Patti Smith, Just Kids [her memoirs]
