Mario Dobrkovsky Drawing of Figure Blowing Smoke 1926
Artist: Mario Dobrkovsky
A collection of over 500 personal drawings discovered in Prague, done by a young Medical Student in the styles of Cubist, Bauhaus and Modernist influence dating from the 1925 to 1932, prior to infamous Munich conference and the annexation of Sudetenland by Nazi Germany.
Outside of this collection, no other work by the artist is known to exist. This collection captures the turbulent period through the eyes of a young student/artist/scientist, with drawing he illustrated a wide range of emotion, humor, cunning and curiosity. Some works are on scraps of paper then mounted to color paper. Others are intermingled with school assignments but each piece is a small masterpiece.
The artist once again brings his art to another level. The blowing smoke head has many interpretations, like a north wind of Winter, a person smoking, or a drawing of anger. The duel, slightly comical views and thoughts of reality is one of the strong points of Dobrkovsky’s art.
The small drawing is cropped into this small work of art. The lips have added color of red and is signed in the lower right with initials and a date of 1926. The top left corner has a number 2. The drawing is mounted to a light bluish heavy weight cardboard paper.
