Biography
Oscar Moll studied painting initially in Munich and in Berlin, including with Lovis Corint . In 1907 he moved to Paris, where he met with Henri Matisse and was under the creative influence of the latter. In 1906, Moll married artist and sculptor Marg Hoeffner . Together with his wife, artist Hans Purrman and some others, Oscar Moll participated in the creation of the Matisse Academy in 1908 and was in it until 1911.
In 1918, Oscar Moll became a professor at the Academy of Art and Applied Arts in Breslau , from 1925 until the Academy closed in 1932, the Mall was its director. Afterwards, Moll worked at the Düsseldorf Academy of Arts , but after the National Socialists came to power in Germany in 1933, Oscar Moll was branded as a representative of decadent, degenerative art and expelled from the Academy. In 1937, 35 of his paintings were confiscated, and at the Nazi exhibition of degenerative art in Munich that same year, his work was again ridiculed and severely criticized.
The creative heritage of Oscar Moll offers the viewer several abstract, lyrical landscapes, as well as still lifes and portraits, painted with bright, contrasting tones and with a masterful ornamental design.
