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.

From the series «Alphabetic Paintings», created between 1958 and 1966, which became one of the most important group of works within Kounellis' early oeuvre. These artworks, mostly consisting words or signs in wide, stereotyping strokes and lines, are reminding of simultaneous works by Cy Twombly or the letter sequences by Piero Manzoni, and can be considered as a reaction on the parallel created works of Art Informel. They became the roots of a completely new artistic language: the Arte Povera.
Provenance: Gallery Natalie Seroussi, Paris; Richard Gray Gallery, Chicago/New York; private collection.

Aus der Serie der «Alphabet Paintings», die zwischen 1958 und 1966 entstanden und zu einer der wichtigsten Schwerpunkte im Frühwerk von Kounellis wurden. Die Arbeiten dieser Serie, die zeitgleichen Werken Cy Twomblys oder den Buchstabenfolgen Piero Manzonis gleichen, meist Worte oder Zeichen in breiten, schablonenhaften Linienzügen, sind eine Reaktion auf die parallel entstehenden Werke der Art Informel und wurden zum Ursprung einer völlig neuen künstlerischen Formensprache: der Arte Povera.
Provenienz: Galerie Natalie Seroussi, Paris; Richard Gray Gallery, Chicago/New York; Privatsammlung.
