- Franz Sedlacek (1891-1945) was an Austrian painter who belonged to the tradition known as "New Objectivity" ("neue Sachlichkeit"), an artistic movement similar to Magical Realism. At the end of the Second World War he "disappeared" as a soldier of the Wehrmacht somewhere in Poland.
Franz Sedlacek was born in Breslau on 21 January 1891, and moved with his family to Linz in 1897. In 1909 he graduated from the Royal High School at the Fadingerstraße. A year later, he moved to Vienna and studied architecture and chemistry. After serving in World War I, he completed his studies and in 1921 began working at the Technical Museum of Vienna.
In 1923, Sedlacek married Maria Albrecht. The couple raised two daughters.
In 1913, Sedlacek founded an artistic association in Linz with Anton Lutz, Klemens Brosch, Franz Bitzan, and Heinz Bitzan. Sedlacek began as a graphic artist, and later turned to oil painting.
In 1925 he produced a number of watercolours for Claire Annabel Caroline Grant Duff's Book The Unicorn.
In 1927, Sedlacek joined the Viennese Secession, an association of artists that was founded by Gustav Klimt and others in 1897.
A collection of his works is on exhibition at the Leopold Museum in the Museumsquartier in Vienna, Austria, including the 1931 painting, "Lied in der Dämmerung" ("Song in the Twilight"), as well as in the Albertina Museum.

Wow, only saw this guy today. What an incredible body of work and so diverse
Closing out another night with another one of your art slideshows :) I like the textures of this artists' work, esepically the black and whites. The black and whites are very gritty, and give it a sense of rawness.There's a certain texture to his work that makes it come to life. The music chosen gives one a sense of exploration. Wishing you much success as always on your beautiful channel :)
Thank you again Robert!
Compliment, you really capture the spirit of his work in this lovely upload.
Thank you!
How someone with a heart beating in their chest can actually click the "thumb down" button on this is beyond me...perfect combination of form & content - thank you for posting!!!
Thank you so much for watching!
Wow I love the music and the pictures you have used some very beautiful! :) x
Thank you! :)
En la noche que es uno mismo, habitan los monstruos que nos miran desde el espejo. Allá en el fondo del abismo, duermen las pesadillas que nos nombran. Cada nombre es un grito; cada fantasma, el terror a uno mismo.
Gran video! Un a brazo y un beso desde la distancia.
Buen poema de pesadilla.
Excelente toque en el claro-oscuro...
I love it ...
Genial ...
Vasta inspiração ...

He would have fitted in quite well with the Surrealists. I see echoes of Bosch, De Chirico, Carrington, Ernst...not to say he was influenced by them, but that they rowed in similar waters.
Brilliant
İnsanı ürkütüyor ve aynı zamanda kendine çekiyor. Muazzam...
This is incredible artwork, reminds me of what i've seen in magazines or something related to Salvador Dali.
❤️
Is it possible to purchase prints of this artwork anywhere?
not a neue sachlichkeit painter , but a phantastiches realist genre.
The characters in the paintings seem to be waiting for the painter.
"A soldier of the wehrmacht"
This makes me wonder about the things Franz Sedlacek saw and the work he might've done had he not 'disappeared'
I'm stretching my imagination trying to reconcile my admiration for him after learning he fought for Hitler. Maybe i'll try reading the history before speculating further.
Thank you, DistantMirrors. Horizons are broadening with every video you upload!
Thank you for watching! Although there is not so much information about him on wikipedia, it was interesting to read his short biography. Maybe somebody will make a documentary about his 'disappearance' and the circumstances behind it one day.
I'd watch that! Also gotta commend your ambient music taste. Basinski's disintegration loops have special meaning to me, heard him in another video. This channel is a trove c:
The Nazis called his stuff "deranged Art", it was a time where not everyone was willingly fighting for the Nazis.
I would love to see a Ralph Steadman video
Thank you for the suggestion!
What s the title of the third one ? Please
Die beschwörung (Incantation). Its author is an artist called Anton Machek (not Frantz Sedlacek)
