The main degenerate of German art. Emil Nolde.Good of peasants
"I really want paints in my paintings by myself pouring out me, the artist, as if nature itself creates its paintings, just as crystals and ores are self-sized, how the algae and moss grow, how flowers are blooming under the rays." Emil Nolde
Strictly speaking - and, in general, as you like - he was Hanzen. Nolde (1867-1956) is a pseudonym. In honor of the German village on the border with Denmark. He was born there in the peasant family. And there were their five brothers. But only one of Hanzen junior came to mind to paint with colored chalk, the chicken coop, the barn and other srates - so it was drawn to the beautiful. And it's not some kind of pain like a man-spider he painted, but biblical stories. Family has been strongly Protestant. Murals are not preserved.
In seventeen years, Nolde left home to people. There he darkened on various German cities, worked as a sharp design on a furniture factory, he studied for a long design - for a long time did not have enough money, the furniture was designed, taught the drawing, etc. Everywhere went on museums. In 1893, he successfully drew a series of such stupid postcards.
LA CIMA DELLA PALA ET LA VEZZANA
Postcards diverged a great circulation that Nolda brought a lot of money. He immediately tied up and began to study painting. First, in Munich, then - in Paris, in the famous Academy of Juliana. There he loved impressionists, van, naturally, gogh and his friend Gogen. And Mill, Domier, Goyu, Titian, Rembrandt and Becklin, he loved before. After some time, Nolde began to love medieval / Renaissance German painting and mock. Well, later I was added more than the trifles, but, in principle, all of these are the basic traditions of which the art has grown.
Nolda did their first work, strongly loving symbols and late romantics like the same Beclin.
May there be light
Two on the seashore
It was at the very beginning of the twentieth century. In Germany, aside from him, there were powerful artistic processes that led to the birth of expressionism. In 1905, a group "Bridge" appeared. Looking at Nolde, Mostovsky invited him to the group. Nold agreed. In the "bridge" he worked like this.
Flower garden
White trunks
In general, it is clear that these pictures closer to French foxism than to native expressionism. And even there is very obscure echoes, as it does not really sound, impressionism *. Nolda caught up with previously acquired love for French painting.
Strange, agree, the situation is obtained. The person consists in itself that neither there is an expressionistic association, later will be announced by the classic of expressionism **, and the pictures are painted inappropriate. But, on the other hand, who told you that in art - the ways are straight? Not arithmetic.
But this continued not long. A year later, Nolde came out of the "bridge" and began to do this, according to all the rules of expressionism, painting.
Riddling Christ
Mystery evening
Crucifixion
That's right here. And the support on the German Middle Ages / Renaissance, and grotesque, and the transmitted sensation of the tragedy of life, and the harsh substantial excitemental antithesis - everything is there anything. And Christ is His Men's Christ, i.e. The guy is from the bottom, in the spirit of Grünevald.
Nolde genre addiction, it is clear, was not limited to an exclusively return to their children's religious fine tradition. He wrote and, let's say, the genre.
Spectators in Cabaret
In such pictures, Nolde gladly fixed the Nelyubov peasant to the city. He also wrote landscapes - always, practically, without people ***.
Autumn Sea VII
Autumn Sea xi
These pictures are part of the series of 21 work describing almost the same appearance. Here again somewhere they hang out the French. Late Monet, in particular, who did a series of landscapes from the same point at different times of the day of the "High Stacks" or "Reims Cathedral". True, Nolde had another task - he was not interested in fixation in dozens of works of how the object changes, roughly speaking, on the same day, depending on the lighting, it was interested in various states of this object: Storm, Calle, time of year, large Daily divisions of the type of sunset, noon, etc. Those. more fundamental things.
At this time, Nolde makes the traditional longitudinal wooden engraving for expressionism, originally from the Middle Ages.
Prophet
The First World War in Creativity Nolda directly did not affect. At the front, he was not due to age, art journalism, let's say, such as those who were engaged in the expressionism of Dix or Gross, he was not interested. He was interested, again, more fundamental things. Some response to war can, of course, find things like this in high ecstatic.
Red Evening Sky
Or in such a sad symbolism, 1919.
Lost heaven
Another thing is that the war, defeat in it, the humililia Versaili Agreement plunged Nolde into the crisis of national self-identification. It was all difficult here from the very beginning. Dad His native language had an Eastern Africa. Mom - Yuzhnutsky. Nolda believed German and, in general, numerated himself on this accessory. In 1920, his native village with the remnants of Cretaceous Ripisses on the barn switched to Denmark, he himself became the Danish subject - why it happened to the citizenship, I do not know, did not understand. The fact is that for Nolde all this was mentally unbearable. In 1927, his dreams are fulfilled - he buys a rural house. But not on a hotly beloved small homeland, but in Zebühul - not far from Nolde, but at the German territory. The sausage of it at this time in black - in the elections in 1928 he rushes between the Communists and the Nazis ****. And at the very beginning of the 1930s. Nolda in one of the Munich galleries saw such a scene - the SESSET spoke on the works of Expressionist Franz Mark, causing the owner of the gallery: "What is it here for painting? Why do you exhibit this trash? Remove immediately. We no longer intend to endure similar exhibitions. True Hermann Art, otherwise your gallery will be closed *****. " Nolde then turned to his buddy and said: "Now I know my future."
Nevertheless, in the end, he makes a choice and enters the NSDAP.
What dragged him there? Well, it is clear, no one as the Nazis has not talked about the very national self-identification. After writing around to them, Nolde, as it were, became the most real German. Of course, he was bought by the beauty of the myth about blood and soil - he is the same peasant in the ninth generation, an artist, an alkaway national tradition. We will not say that this tradition could be alkalo directly opposing the Nazi version of the way, as did, say, Barlah, just take, as an explanation. Nolda at this time reached the fact that he began to talk about the priority of German art before French - this is how much he took away from there. Okay, hell with him, with Nolde. What you take - the artist.
The trouble burst with an unexpected side for a Nolda - did not accept it. Those. First, inside the Nazism there were problems in the sense of accepting expressionism as truly Germanic art in the part of its part, where expressionism appeals to the nation, Middle Ages, etc., even Goebbels himself expressed him his sympathies ******. Everything ended in 1937, when Hitler in his speech at the opening of the house of German art in Munich called expressionism together with all the other trends in the avant-garde "degenerative art." And, personally about Nold: "It is unthinkable!". Nolda tried to somehow resist reality. Even wrote the denunciations on former associates in the sense that they are Jews. Nothing helped.
And Nolde becomes a record holder in the number of repressions that fell on it. Well, it is clear, he is expelled from the post of members of the Prussian Academy of Arts, it's like both others. But at the exhibition "Degenerative Art" his work occupies one of the central places.
Life of Christ
But he has a fantastic number of works seized from different collections - more than 1100. Part of them was burned, part, oddly enough, was returned on the suit, part - sold. And, the most unusual - I, in any case, I do not know another story - he was forbidden to engage in profession. Since 1941, the execution of this ban controlled the Gestapo.
By that time, for many years, for many years already lived in Zebühul. After the ban on the profession, he switched to little format watercolors. Completely fantastic quality. The finest, but nevertheless expressionistic.
Multicolored sky over the swamp
Do not paint ***** He was not able - from him Person. But he could not write with oil - oil paints are very characteristic of smelling, it can remember anyone who was at least once in the workshop of a normal artist, not a conceptualist of some gesticulating, in the sense. He later called these works later by unplanned paintings.
Anemones 37.
The war ran out. Humanity has forgotten about National-Socialist television Nolde, it perceived him as a sacrifice. In 1950, he received the Prize of the Venetian Biennale. In 1953, the Government of Germany awarded his medal "For merits in the field of science and arts". Damn it knows. We do not take into account political views, say, Leonardo da Vinci. And, on the other hand, there were no totalitarian ideologies. In short, as refers to the awesome, but ideologically hostile artist, I do not know. The last works are such.

* Expressionism and arose as some negative reaction to impressionism. The grace, elusiveness, fluidity, neo-formability, the objectivity of the second first opposed subjectivity, invariance, essentiality, constancy and patter.
** At the same time, Nolde could not tolerate all his life when it was called it. None associations are no longer included. Very separate was a man.
*** This landscape must be without people. After all, what is the coolest of all the nature of the nature? OUR, human failure in it. It is a difficult idea that all this wealth - starting with the "autumn" of Levitan and ending with exotic pictures in the FB - can do without us.
**** There was nothing monstrous in this choice. The proximity of the positions was realized then. Hitler said that from the liberal of decent Nazis would never work, and from the Communist - quite. At the beginning of the Nazi regime, a film was made, I do not remember the name, and to turn the monograph of the Golomstock - Lena, in which a duct communist his Rotfrontovsky gesture is a squeezed fist - smoothly translates into a Nazi greeting. There is nothing more racas than to talk about the root kinship of these ideologies. This relationship we are easily watching our homeland for the past decades.
***** German Cossacks?
****** Their Goebbels are like our Lunacharsky. Both wrote a secondary symbolist fusion of the play, both were sympathizants of avant-gardium. But Goebbels turned out to be vigorous - earlier than the general line.
******* Once again I remind you that this is a professional jargon. In civilized society, this word is replaced by euphemisms like writing, draw, create, create, browse (neglect.).
Emil Nolde. 1867-1956
Leading German expressionist artist.
Childhood and youthful years of one of the most characteristic expressionist artists of Hans Emil Hansen, a better known art in the world under the pseudonym Nold (by the name of the native place in Prussia), were filled with constant and unbearable labor due to the serious material situation of the family.
The future watercolorist was born on August 7, 1867, and the fact that painting would be the meaning of his life could be determined on the painted challenges of the economic buildings, although he will start an independent path in art only in adulthood. In the first drawings, plots were prevailed on biblical themes, which flowed out of the lifestyle in the family, strictly professing the canons of the Holy Scripture.
In 1884, Nolde leaves for Flensburg, where the craft craft and the artist, devoting all the leisure of drawing. In 1888, during his studies, he fell into Munich to an exhibition of industrial design, and under the impression of museums abundant in this city, lingered here for a few weeks, hitting the beauty of the unknown cultural world.
After graduating from school in 1889, Nolda studied for some time at the Industrial Design School in Karlsruhe, partially mastered and the basics of painting, but only two semesters had enough money to study.
Having moved to Berlin, Nolde finds the work of the furniture designer, cutting time for visiting museums, the study of the art of ancient civilizations, mainly Egypt and Assyria, and also tries to penetrate the secrets of creating paintings by the past masters.
At the beginning of the 1892, there are cardinal changes in Nolda in life, and they are connected with moving to Switzerland, Saint Gallen. Here it is arranged in the Museum of Industrial Design, teaching industrial and decorative drawing. Despite the utmost employment at work and lack of time for creativity, it is in Switzerland that his professional path begins as an artist. Taking advantage of the opportunity to visit the neighboring Italy and France, Nolde studies the creativity of Da Vinci, Durera, comes delight from Nietzsche and the art of symbolists. A great luck turned into work on the creation of humorous postcards, on which the mountains are depicted in the form of funny giants. The editor of the "Yugden" magazine not only reproduced these postcards in the publication, but also invited the artist to swim in his house. Feeling "Breathing" of good luck, Nolda takes money to issue a new party of pictures, and falls precisely to the target: 100 thousand circulation is divided into 10 days, and its financial situation is improving 25 thousand francs.
Throwing a job and returned to Munich, Nolda is trying to enter the Academy, but they do not accept it, and training takes place in two private schools who cannot give him more than the works of Mill, Domier, Titian. In these pictures, "inner fire" was present - what he was constantly looking for. Also interested Nolde works by Gauguen, Van Gogh, and especially the mug with whom he felt spiritual proximity. During his studies at Hyulzel, the artist is successfully engaged in etching, creates watercolors adorning his work, among which and the "portrait of a young girl." The technique of his work is constantly improving, but it only stimulates Nolde to work hard.
Settling in Paris, where he moved in autumn 1899, the artist is studying at the Academy of Julien, trying to deeper to get acquainted with the cultural life of the city, is attracted to the work of impressionists, their vital and creative position.
Return to Germany was accompanied by spirituality associated with an unsuccessful attempt to find an individual style; During this period, only a few landscapes and portraits are created.
The first significant picture "Before Dawn" appears in 1901.
In the period from 1903 to 1905 Nolde with his wife hell is forced to migrate between Alsen Island, where they had their own house, Italy, and Berlin. The artist works a lot, but under the influence of the artist Schmidt-Rottlifa becomes a member of the Association "Bridge", although his participation was almost formal, and a year later he moves away from the group.
Nature, as well as religious plots, made up the main plot of the works of Nolde. The Master's palette is enriched with the growth of his professionalism, and for the main goal, he set a challenge to emotions from the viewer, consciously ignoring the color inconsistency of picture and real objects. "German expressionism" - the style that his artistic manner was determined, but Nolda himself did not consider himself an expressionist, more agreeing with the status of the "Free Artist".
Honor, and with him the abundance of exhibitions, came to the master after 1945, and until 1951 he creates a lot of watercolors, and the number of paintings reached almost one hundred pieces; Most of these works have become a creative result and decoration of his art.

After the transmission of Denmark, Nolde received the citizenship of Denmark, which he retained to the end of his life. His father by nationality was the northern frieze. Emil attended a German school and believed that the mixture of Schleswig and Frisian blood flows in it.

In 1913-1914, Nolda made a trip to the southern hemisphere as a member of the medical and demographic German-Novoguena expedition under the Imperial Colonial Office. In 1916, Nolde moved to Utenvalf on the west coast near Tender. Nolde negatively related to clashes and establishing the German-Danish border after the First World War, and despite the fact that he considered himself a German, in 1920 he accepted Danish citizenship.
Seebül
After the drainage of Unthvalfa lands, Nolde moved along with his wife-Dane hello Willastrup to the German territory, where the terrain reminded him of his native Nolde. On the high hill of Seebül in Neukirchen Chet Nolda first acquired the old house, and a few years later, Nolda built in his place on his own project a new house with a workshop, raised above the surrounding area as a medieval fortress. The house there was a place for the workshop, and for work written here.

The life of Emil Nolde, deprived of the right to work, is described in the novel "German lesson" Ziegfried Lenza.
Emil Nolde was one of the early artists expressionists, although his fame was eclipsed by others, such as, for example, Munk. The essence of expressionism is an image of reality from a subjective point of view. Nolda wrote this picture after studying masks in the Berlin Museum. Throughout his life, he was fond of other cultures, and this work is no exception.
When mentioning the name of the German expressionist, Emil Nolde (Emil Nolde), first of all, come to mind its colorful floral gardens, brown marine landscapes, full of drama images of tightened sky clouds, portraits, nightlife pictures of Berlin ...
The little-known side of the artist
But there is another, less well-known side in the work of Emil Nold: His interest in fantastic and grotesque. The exhibition "Nolde. Grotesque" tells about it, which takes place at the Museum of Fantasy in the village of Bukhaym not far from Munich.
Usually at Emil Nolde exhibitions - and they, we note, are very popular in Germany - its fantastic and grotesque works can be seen rarely. They are exhibited in the form of an exception or some of the counterpoint its more famous works. The peculiarity of the current exposition is that on it for the first time these works are collected together and are presented in all their diversity.
At one of them, called "Flying in the early morning" depicted two cute fantastic creatures, at the same time terrible and funny, playful and cute on appearance. What are they departed now? Will their prank evil or good? This picture, like other grotesque works of Emil Nolde, is not amenable to unambiguous interpretation and leaves a place for the audience's imagination.
Fantastic and provocative
On the other canvase - the "faint-eyed woman" - the lady bends in a very frank position before the man observing her. Her body is bright yellow, as bright red hair, dark red dress - screaming, causing, emphasize the frivolism of the scene. Grotesque in Emil Nolde is a way to provoke the viewer, not to leave it indifferent.
Among the exhibits of the exhibition - watercolor created in 1931-1935. Oslands of paints of delightful colors merge, forming abstract forms. The line-applied black lines give these forms outlines of individual figures, such as, for example, in the picture "Beast and Woman".
The 1918th year is dating watercolors of another series, which depicts as incredible creatures and scenes, the fruit of the artist's fantasy. The "terrible meeting" shows a huge pork head in front of a person who has a horror on his head on his head. In the picture "Dancing" lady in a yellow dress, gracefully moves in dance on male bald.
Grotesque as a red thread in creativity
It would be wrong to consider grotesque and fantastic cloths and drawings of Emil Nolda as a separate, independent section of his creativity, not related to his other works. In the autobiography and letters, Emil Nolde indicates a lot of things that the artist had a significant impact on the fantastic and grotesque.
Context
This can be seen by the example of the painting "mountain giants" of 1896. This is the first oil written by Emil Nolda. Separately, it should be noted a number of postcards on which the artist portrayed the Mountains of Switzerland, giving them grotesque human features. It is thanks to these postcards that he gained fame as an artist before the beginning of the 20th century. Starting from these postcards and up to the period when the Nazis banned Emily Nolde to engage in professional activities, the red thread through his work is going through reality and turn towards the grotesque world.
Ambivalence artist
Emil Nolde, whose real name Hans Emil Hansen was born in 1867 in the town of Nolde on the border of the then Prussia with Denmark. In his youth he studied at the school of artistic crafts in the specialty of the carver and the artist. Later he became a member of the Association of the "Bridge" - a group of artists, founders of German expressionism, and also participated in the movement of the Berlin Special Council, rejected academic art.
It should be noted by his ambivalent role in national socialism. Emil Nolde was a supporter of the Hitler's regime. Joseph Goebbels, Minister of Propaganda in Hitler, acquired several landscaped watercolors Nold in 1933. Soon, however, the artist's creativity was recognized as "degenerative art." The reason was his grotesque paintings, which were exhibited in one of the Berlin galleries.
More than a thousand of his works were then confiscated and sold or destroyed. Some of them were shown in the infamous exhibition "Degenerative Art", which opened in 1937 and traveled in Germany until 1941. Since 1941, during a prohibition of professional activities, the artist secretly created the so-called "unpasted paintings", small watercolor drawings.

Is it possible to call the art of National Socialism progressive? Art historians believe that it was far behind the current currents of their time.

The "peasant trapes" of 1935 shows one of the favorite Nazis motifs: a German family.
