Professor Hermann Dischler
25th September 1866 – 20th March 1935
Hermann Dischler was born on the 25th of September in 1866 in Freiburg i.Br. He received his artistic training in the art school in Karlsruhe, he was student of Gustav Schönleber. Thereafter he was engaged as a painter in the Breisgau-Hochschwarzwald area.
1894, after he finished his studies, he built himself an artist’s workroom in Freiburg i.Br. At this time he went on a lot of trips and his trusty camera followed him everywhere. Five years later he started to number and comment his artworks, which he collected in 29 «Bildbüchern (books of pictures)».
In the winter months from 1905 to 1907 he stayed in the Todtnauer Hütte, where a lot of his oil studies arise.
The snowy winter landscapes became his typical theme and he called himself «Schneemoler (snowpainter)». 1917 he received his professorship by Grand Duke Friedrich II.
In 1927 he had an exhibition with artists like Curt Liebich, Julius Heffner, Wilhelm Nagel, Wilhelm Wickertsheimer a.o., they called themselves «Die Schwarzwälder (the Black Forests)». He died on the 20th of March in 1935 in Hinterzarten. Today his works are extremely appreciated because the snowy landscape present the untouched nature.

After moving to Paris with his parents in 1913, it was the early Renaissance painters Jean Fouquet and Paolo Ucello who fascinated the young Estève during visits to the Louvre in the 1920s. His desire to become an artist was ignited. Largely self-taught, he became acquainted with the art of Cézanne, whom he admired, and visited the Atelier Colarossi in order to form himself artistically. Finally, from the 1930s onwards, he developed his own style, based on post-Cubist forms, which he composes in a poetically colourful way in the paintings of figures, still lifes and interiors. These become increasingly abstract during the 1950s, showing closely interlocking forms with rich, bold colours. Alongside Jean-Paul Riopelle and Pierre Soulages, Estève is an important representative of gestural-sensitive Tachism in France, also known as lyrical abstraction.
