Hilde Goldschmidt

Kitzbuhel (Kitzbuehel)

Hilde Goldschmidt's original monotype and pastel drawing, Kitzbuhel (Kitzbuehel) depicts the town the artist made her permanent residence from 1950 until her death. Kitzbuhel is located in the Austrian province of Tyrol, about 100 kilometres east of Innsbruck. This large and important monotype represents one of Hilde Goldschmidt's finest works of art, displaying her unique ability to blend both Expressionist and Cubist elements into a highly charged psychological image.

Title:	Kitzbuhel (Kitzbuehel)
Artist:	Goldschmidt, Hilde (Leipzig, Germany, 1897 - Kitzbuhel, Austria, 1980)
Date:	1962
Medium:	Original Monotype & Pastel Drawing
Edition:	One Impression
Note:	Hilde Goldschmidt: A major twentieth century German/Austrian painter and printmaker, Hilde Goldschmidt first studied art techniques at the Akademie der Bildender Kunste, Leipzig (1914-1917). The arts played a large role in her youth as her parents' friends and acquaintances included such individuals as Alexei Jawlensky, Marianne Werefkin, Rainer Maria Rilke and Thomas Mann. In 1919 Hilde Goldschmidt designed stage sets for such Leipzig play productions as Strindberg's A Dream Play and Lichnowsky's A Game of Death. Later that year she enrolled in Dresden's Academy of Fine Arts and was initially taught by Otto Hettner. In the following year, however, Hilde Goldschmidt had become a principal student of Oskar Kokoschka (1886-1980). She remained with Kokoschka until 1923 when she left for New York (along with Friedrich Karl Gotsch and Hans Meyboden) to attend an exhibition of their art at the Neumann Gallery.
	Hilde Goldschmidt's first solo exhibition of her art took place in 1932 at the Gallery Caspari, Munich. During the following years her art was the subject of solo exhibitions in Leipzig, Vienna, Basel, Innsbruck, Jerusalem, Manchester and London.
	Hilde Goldschmidt first moved to Kitzbuhel in 1934. After the Nazi annexation of Austria she was forced (because of her Jewish heritage) to leave the country in 1939. Goldschmidt settled in England's Lake District, near Ambleside, where she met and became friends with another exiled artist, Kurt Schwitters (1887-1948). She returned to Kitzbuhel and made it her permanent home in 1950.
	During the following years Goldschmidt travelled annually to the city of Venice and also visited Malta, Israel and England. Both Venice and Kitzbuhel figure prominently in her art from the 1960's and 1970's. Combining Expressionism and Abstraction her representations brilliantly capture the psychological sense and spirit of these two cities.
	The graphic medium of the monotype (monoprint) was as paramount to the art of Hilde Goldschmidt as painting. For her achievements in the arts the President of Austria awarded Goldschmidt the honorary title of 'Professor' in 1974. Today the art of Hilde Goldschmidt will be found in museums such as the Kitzbuhel Museum, the Tiroler Landesmuseum Ferdinandeum, Innsbruck, the Dresden State Art Collections and in the Tate Gallery, London.
