Life

She was born as Bronisława Pineles to a Jewish family in Sanok in what is now Poland. Her father, Saul Pineles [pl], was a designer of military fortifications.[1] In 1870, they moved to Vienna to start a manufacturing business (where they changed the family name to "Pinell") and she took private art lessons with Alois Delug.[2] In 1885, she had her first public exhibition. For the next five years, she studied in Munich at the "Damenakademie" of the Munich Artists' Association in the studios of Ludwig von Herterich.[1] This was followed by exhibitions at the Vienna Künstlerhaus, in Munich and in Leipzig.[2] Koller-Pinell exhibited her work at The Woman's Building at the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago, Illinois.[3]

In 1896, against her family's wishes, she married the physicist and industrialist, Dr. Hugo Koller [de], who was a Catholic. Their children were raised as Christians, but she never converted.[1] At first, they lived in Salzburg and Nuremberg, but returned to Vienna in 1902. Shortly after, she was accepted as a member of the Vienna Secession.[2] In 1904, she inherited a house in Oberwaltersdorf. The family soon moved there, and she had it decorated by Josef Hoffmann and Koloman Moser, associates from the Secession. Shortly after, she set up a salon[4] that was frequented by Egon Schiele, Anton Faistauer and Albert Paris Gütersloh, among others.

Her son, Rupert (1896–1976), became a conductor and was briefly married to Anna Mahler. Her daughter Silvia (1898–1963) was also a painter.

Koller-Pinell died in Oberwaltersdorf on 26 April 1934.

Her work was included in the 2019 exhibition City Of Women: Female artists in Vienna from 1900 to 1938 at the Österreichische Galerie Belvedere.[5]
