Karl Hauptmann
«The Feldberg Painter»
24th April 1880 – 7th April 1947
Karl Hauptmann was born on 25th of April in 1880 in Freiburg i.Br., Germany. He received his artistic training in Nürnberg and Munich and was thereafter engaged as a decorative painter.
In 1908 he produced the first of what were to be his typical Black Forest paintings. In the years between 1915 and 1919, he produced numerous images of the Alpine region he had visited during his deployment with the mountain infantry in the First World War.
In 1918 Karl Hauptmann purchased «Molerhüsli», which for him encompassed his dwelling, atelier, and exhibition space. It soon became a favourite meeting place for skiers, hikers, students, and visitors to Feldberg.
Due to Hauptmann’s ever-present health problems, his doctor prescribed a trip to Italy in 1940, to which he again travelled the following year.
On 7th of April in 1947, Karl Hauptmann died at the age of 67 at his «Molerhüsli».

This work can be placed within Werner Berges's work complex of the abstraction of the human figure, whose heyday extended from the early 1980s to the 1990s. The non-representational works of this period reveal diffuse outlines or surfaces similar in form to the human body, which open up individual fields of association for the viewer.

Diese Arbeit lässt sich in Werner Berges' Werkkomplex der Abstraktion der menschlichen Figur einordnen, dessen Blütezeit sich von Beginn der 1980er bis in die 1990er Jahre erstreckte. Die ungegenständlichen Arbeiten dieser Zeit lassen diffuse, dem humanen Körper formverwandte Umrisse oder Flächen erkennen, die den Betrachtenden individuelle Assoziationsfelder eröffnen.
