Kone 1930 - 1945

Arnold Peter Weisz-Kubínčan made "Kone" with ink on paper, and I can almost see the dance he did to make it! The thick, dark lines create a sense of movement and energy—almost as if he's captured a fleeting moment. What was he thinking, I wonder? Was he trying to capture something real or something from his imagination? The horse, the rider with the horns, the forest, all rendered with such raw emotion, and those graphic shapes! They remind me of other painters like Kirchner, but also of some kind of dark fairytale. What do you think? Maybe Weisz-Kubínčan was just playing around, experimenting with the push and pull of the ink. As artists, we’re all in conversation, after all, building on each other's ideas, and exploring new ways of seeing and feeling the world.
