Kinetic School, Vienna School of Arts and Crafts, class of Franz Cizek, Vienna, c. 1920, charcoal on brown paper, monogrammed: AE(?), inscribed: Glasfenster/schwarz weiss [glass window/black white], 70 x 44 cm. (DRAX)
Viennese kinetic art was developed in Franz Cizek’s course “Ornamental Forms” at the Vienna School of Arts and Crafts in the 1920s as a melange of Cubist, Futurist, and Constructivist elements of style. His approach was radically abstract. The most important exponents of the movement – primarily women attending his course – were Erika Giovanna Klien, Elisabeth Karlinsky, and Maria/My Ullmann, all of whom would later go abroad.
