High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Oskar Kokoschka (1 March 1886 in Pöchlarn 22 February 1980 in Montreux) was an Austrian artist, poet and playwright best known for his intense expressionistic portraits and landscapes. Kokoschka's early career was marked by portraits of Viennese celebrities, painted in a nervously animated style. He served in the Austrian army in World War I and was wounded. At the hospital, the doctors decided that he was mentally unstable. Nevertheless, he continued to develop his career as an artist, traveling across Europe and painting the landscape. The house in which Oskar Kokoschka was born in Pöchlarn (August 2006) Kokoschka had a passionate, often stormy affair with Alma Mahler, shortly after the death of her four-year-old daughter Maria Mahler and her affair with Walter Gropius. After several years together, Alma rejected him, explaining that she was afraid of being too overcome with passion. He continued to love her his entire life, and one of his greatest works The Tempest (Bride of the Wind) (at left below), is a tribute to her. His poem Allos Markar was inspired by this relationship. The poet Georg Trakl visited the studio while Kokoschka was painting this masterpiece.
