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 the shock of the Falklands War (1982), Horst Antes almost completely banned figurative representations from his work and instead devoted himself to images of numbers and houses. Inspired by the rural house type of the Tuscan «casa colonica», Antes began with one house, then grouped two and up to entire clusters of them on his canvases. The simple, windowless, architectural structures refer to the human living space itself in which we thrive and manifest our life's desires.
«In the art figure of the cephalopod, he has found a role in which he probes the fictitious spaces of existence figuratively, but without ingratiating himself with reality, in order to finally find the house and the number - in other words: space and time - in which figuration merges and ultimately makes itself dispensable because it is timelessly present.» from: Galerie Schlichtenmaier (Ed.), Horst Antes, Zum 80. Geburtstag, 28 October - 26 November 2016, Stuttgart 2016, p. 13.
