Oscar Nemon: memoari, eseji, osvrti i zapisi

Oscar Nemon

Oscar Nemon, a sculptor born in Osijek, portrayed statesmen, artists and thinkers, some of the most influential and prominent people of the 20th century - Sigmund Freud, Winston Churchill, Queen Elizabeth II, Dwight Eisenhower, Margaret Thatcher...

Oscar Nemon is an artist who justly deserves his place in the national as well as European art history. He was born in Osijek, but he left his city and his hometown early on, studying and creating in European metropolises - Vienna, Brussels and London. There he achieved an enviable career as a top portrait sculptor, and his extremely interesting biography, which unfolds before us almost like a movie script, is filled with meetings with some of the key figures in the history of the 20th century. Oscar Nemon hung out with Sigmund Freud and Winston Churchill, and many other protagonists of the English, European and world political, aristocratic and intellectual elite posed for him. In his memoirs, Nemon humorously describes the memories of these meetings - with the insight of a psychoanalyst trained at the very source, he conveys snippets of their lives, apparently with the benign naivete of an observer to whom his famous models confided.
