Description: Known for his highly expressionistic, colourful portraits and landscape paintings, Austrian artist Oskar Kokoschka (1886-1980) was an avant-garde inspiration to a generation of painters. The four-month retrospective exhibition exhibited in Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen features 150 paintings and drawings that highlight a great cultural movement in Europe during the late 19th and early 20th century. This major retrospective brings together Kokoschka's confrontational portraits more than half a century after his work was last exhibited in The Netherlands.0Exhibition: Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen, Rotterdam, The Netherlands (21.09.2013-19.01.2014).00.
