Kunstforum Wien Oscar Bronner
Oscar Bronner was born in 1943 in Haifa, Israel, and has lived and worked in Vienna since 1948. In his painting, he combines figuration with free-flowing painterly gestures. Since the 1970s, the artist has developed his motifs – whether flowers, landscapes, figures or abstract forms – based on color. The focus is on the process itself, which takes precedence over thematic content. The artist views the canvas as a color palette from whose basic tonal components the image emerges. Bronner started out his career working traditionally with a paintbrush, but since the mid-1980s has increasingly applied paint with his fingers as well, placing his work surface horizontally to the painting process. The resulting paintings testify to an earnest engagement with his subjects and at the same time represent an avowal of the elementary criteria of the medium.
