Otto Rudolf SCHATZ - Zirkus

Otto Rudolf Schatz (1900-1961): Zirkus (Circus), 1937. Woodcut on Japan paper, 41 x 36.5 cm (block), 54.2 x 39.3 cm (sheet). Monogrammed and dated "ORS 37" in pencil by the artist.

The motif corresponds to a scene that takes place in Ödön von Horváth's last novel from 1937, ‘A Child of Our Time’, in which the author parables the rise of fascism in Germany and Austria. It is quite possible that the politically committed artist Otto Rudolf Schatz, who returned to Austria from a short stay in the United States in 1937, read the novel when it was published.

"All unsere Führer schwärmen zwar immer vom Frieden, aber ich und meine Kameraden, wir zwinkern uns nur zu. Unsere Führer sind schlau und klug, sie werden die anderen schon hineinlegen, denn sie beherrschen die Kunst der Lüge wie keine zweite." (Ödön von Horváth: Ein Kind unserer Zeit. 1937)
