– ABOUT THE ARTIST –
Hans Liska – Hans Liska (1907-1983) Hans Liska was born on 19 November 1907 in Vienna, Austria. After graduating from business school and working as an accountant, he went to the University of Applied Arts in Vienna as a pupil of Berthold Löffler – A friend of Oskar Kokoschka. In the economically rising Germany, Hans Liska principally worked in advertising for the automobile industry, mainly with Daimler-Benz for nine years. He also had clients like the Cologne based firms Ford and Mülhens, creating advertising art like the famous painting of a horseman, writing the numbers 4711 on the house wall of fragrance company Ferdinand Mülhens. Other clients included Kaufhof-AG, DEGUSSA, Märklin, Quelle, Farbwerke Höchst, Lederer-Bräu und Schlenkerla-Bamberg, to name a few. From 1960 onwards, he produced his city and landscape books with sketches from Salzburg, Bamberg, Cologne, Kulmbach and Franconia. Around 1970, the porcelain company Kaiser in Bad Staffelstein launched a series of jars, bowls and mainly plates with more than 200 Liska motifs of the cities Königsberg, Gdansk, Breslau, Berlin, Munich, Aachen, Bamberg, among others. Furthermore, his oeuvre includes his illustrated travel accounts, which contain the exceptional drawings of atmospheric flamenco dancing and bull fighting.
