The fleeting gestures of conductors in Hugo Boettinger’s drawings
The study, based on the example of several conductor personalities whom the painter Hugo Boettinger (1880–1934) met, presents the most typical feature and source of inspiration of the author’s work – the ability to capture the typical features of human movement, both in direct sketches during concerts and from memory with the passage of time. The painter had great admiration for conductors. Already as a boy he saw concerts conducted by Antonín Dvořák and Karel Kovařovic. After completing his studies at the Academy, he went on a study trip to Paris and London in 1906, where, thanks to his supporter Count Lützow, he had the opportunity to meet the leading conducting personalities of the early twentieth century music. If his health permitted, Boettinger was a regular visitor to Prague concerts and had the opportunity to see both Czech conductors, of whom Václav Talich became his friend, and the world’s leading conductors who performed in Prague – Alexander Zemlinsky, Wihelm Furtvängler, Arthur Nikisch, Bernardino Molinari, Richard Strauss etc. The article is dedicated to the one hundred and tenth anniversary of the artist’s death.
