Embracing art e-biography of Ivana Kobilca
- 3. SHE WAS A PAINTER WHO STUDIED AND WORKED IN VIENNA, MUNICH, PARIS, SARAJEVO, BERLIN AND LJUBLJANA. SHE MAINLY PAINTED OIL PAINTINGS AND PASTELS, AND HER DRAWINGS ARE RARE. TOPICS INCLUDE STILL LIFE, PORTRAITS, GENRE WORKS, ALLEGORIES AND RELIGIOUS SCENES. SHE WAS A CONTROVERSIAL PERSON, CRITICIZED FOR THE FOLLOWING MOVEMENTS THAT DID NOT DEVELOP IN LATER PERIODS.
- 4. JUDGING BY HER SOCIAL ORIGIN, WAY OF LIVING, IDEALS AND WORK, SHE WAS AN URBAN ARTIST. SHE IS ONE OF SLOVENE REALISTS, WHO CREATED THEIR MOST IMPORTANT PAINTINGS IN THE 1880S. KOBILCA'S GREATEST TRIBUTE TO SLOVENIAN ART WAS MADE DURING THE TIME SHE LIVED ABROAD. HER GREATEST IMPACT WAS ON FIGURAL PAINTING, ESPECIALLY PORTRAITS AND PAINTINGS OF TYPICAL PEOPLE'S LIVES IN RUSTIC OR URBAN PLACES.
- 5. FROM HERE ON, MANY ARTISTS TOOK THE NEXT STEP THAT LED INTO IMPRESSIONISM, BUT IVANA KOBILCA DID NOT. IN THE LATEST PERIOD OF HER WORK, HER ABILITY TO CREATE FRESH AND INTERESTING PAINTINGS STARTED TO FADE. WITH SOME EXCEPTIONS, HER WORKS OF THAT PERIOD ARE DULL AND IMPERSONAL.
