Watercolor Drawings of Joseph Kolschbach (1892–1947) and Visual Poetry 
July 1st, 2008 by Jesse Glass

Just wanted to mention a series of dynamic pen and ink drawings with watercolor highlights done by this German contemporary of August Macke in 1912. His work is filled with the angular, splintered gestures of the Rhenish Expressionists, yet there is a writerly quality to what he does that places him firmly within the vispo spectrum. Imagiine Kandinsky’s early abstractions held within the boundary of the human form reduced to the merest sign and kanted at a 75 degree angle. Worth a look and certainly an influence on what I’m up to. Jesse
