Kone 1930 - 1945

Arnold Peter Weisz-Kubínčan's "Kone" is a drawing made with ink, seemingly dashed off in a moment. It's all about gesture. Look at the way he's used the brush, so free and almost reckless. It reminds me that artmaking is a process, not just about the final image. The texture of the ink on paper is pretty simple, the black lines are mostly consistent in thickness. But the way he's layered those lines gives it a sense of depth and movement, right? Notice how the horse in the foreground is built from these quick, confident strokes. It's almost like he's trying to capture the essence of the horse, not just its appearance. That one long, sweeping line that forms the horse's back is killer. It’s like looking at a Cy Twombly, with the same kind of playful mark-making. It’s proof that a few simple lines can create a whole world of feeling.
