Endel Kõks
(1912 - 1983)
Wild Horses. 1979
Mixed media, paper. Km 18 x 24.3 cm (framed)
price 2 100
Endel Kõks chose to flee to the Free World during World War II and emigrated to Sweden in 1950. Kõks received his art education in Pallas from his native Estonia, although his later works barely hint at the aesthetic values of the Ado Vabbe class of the 1930s. The adrenaline-inducing work here is clearly influenced by Endel Kõks’ 1967 trip to the US, Canada, and Mexico, although the frame itself feels very cinematic, referencing westerns or cowboy movies. There is a certain code of meaning that has been carried over from the westerns into fashion and politics – white and black hats. By the colour of the hat, the viewer could immediately tell whether the person riding into the frame was on the side of good or evil. As one can see, Endel Kõks’ work features both colour codes, which means that there is obviously a struggle between good and evil. It is also known that the good always wins.
