Although overshadowed by their male colleagues, many important
women artists carved out successful careers in early 20th-century
Vienna. They exhibited across Europe, and their work was acquired
by royal, state, and private collectors. Their names, however, are
largely unknown today, and their masterpieces relegated to
footnotes in history. Artists such as Elena Luksch-Makowsky, Helene
Funke, Erika Giovanna Klien, Ilse Bernheimer, Maria Cyrenius,
Friedl Dicker, Marie Egner, and Louise Fraenkel-Hahn are profiled
in this book, along with vibrant reproductions of their works. The
remarkable stories of how many of these women found their way to
Vienna from Germany, Russia, and beyond are enhanced by
explorations of their contributions to such movements as
Atmospheric Impressionism, Secessionism, Expressionism, Kineticism,
and New Objectivity. This book shows how the ingenuity and
perseverance of these artists enabled them not only to carve out a
place alongside their more renowned male peers, but also to create
their own associations and exhibitions and become a pivotal part of
the Viennese Modernism movement.
