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.

«Material pictures, collages, assemblages or object pictures? Jupp Linssen's works are all of these, but none of them exclusively and in the narrowest sense. Like many artists of his generation, for whom the creative handling of ‹non-art› fragments of reality practised since early modernism - since Duchamp's readymades, the cubist collages and Schwitters' Merzbilder - has long since become a matter of course, Linssen resorts to found materials, which he makes an integral part of his pictorial works. The found objects are ‹poor› materials, bulky waste relics such as zinc sheets, old wooden slats and parts of other disused utensils. His sensitivity to the material - the faded, dulled sheet metal, the weathered, exhausted wood, the oxidised iron - is expressed in the material- and texture-oriented painting, which consciously dissolves the aesthetic boundary between what is found and what is artistically produced.» from: http://www.jupplinssen.de/index_daten.htm.
