Presenting a wide range of works on paper by Oskar Kokoschka (1886 - 1980), beginning with a drawing from a recently discovered student sketchbook and concluding with examples from a series of drawings inspired by the artist's experiences as a soldier during World War I. This collection traces his development from his early, decorative works to the more mature style charaterized by a masterly command of draftsmanship and an often violent subject matter. The work is illuminated in an essay by the authors, who are leading scholars of Kokoschka's works on paper.
