Henryk Gotlib, British/Polish 1890–1966 - Nude with Hand on Shoulder, 1960; oil on canvas, signed and dated lower right 'Gotlib 1960', 101.5 x 64 cm (ARR) Provenance: Boundary Gallery, London Note: with thanks to Agi Katz for her assistance with the cataloguing of this work. Gotlib studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Krakow, followed by the Kunstgewerbeschule in Vienna, and the Munich Academy of Fine Arts, where he was taught by the artist Angelo Jank. He was a key member of the Formist movement in Poland, which rejected the seemingly restrictive standards of Realism, still very much dominant in early twentieth-century Polish art, in favour of an expressionism which was heavily influenced by figures such as Egon Schiele and Max Beckmann. The looser, more fluid application of paint which defined Gotlib’s best works are strikingly evident in these pieces, which therefore serve as excellent examples of his style and approach. Works by Gotlib are in a number of prominent collections, including those of the National Portrait Gallery, the Tate Gallery, and the Courtauld Gallery in London, the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford, and the National Museum of Wales in Cardiff, among others.
