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.

H 174, W 60, D 45 cm.
Rusty-red, brownish leather, imitating the colour of exposed muscle strands, dominates this whimsical, captivatingly curious work, reminiscent of the enlightened yet eerie skinned statues of the 18th century academies known as écorchés. Two musclemen, joined back to back like Siamese twins, ending in a single stele, look into the distance with their empty, pupil-less eyes. Their arms cut off through smooth cuts, they are condemned in their fragmented state to eternal passivity and observing standstill. As with the Roman god Janus, their heads point in opposite directions and embody the incompatibility of extremes competing to infinity, such as becoming and passing, life and death, past and future.

Geb. 1953 Portsmouth, lebt und arbeitet in Coventry.
«One Body».
1992. Leder, Filz, Holz und Glasaugen sowie Öl auf Leinwand. Unter einem Arm sign. Flecken.
H. 174, B. 60, T. 45 cm.
Rostrotes, bräunliches Leder, die Farbe offen gelegter Muskelstränge imitierend, beherrscht diese wunderliche, fesselnd-kuriose Arbeit, die an die aufklärerischen und zugleich schaurigen, gehäuteten Statuen der Akademien des 18. Jahrhunderts, Écorchés genannt, erinnert. Zwei Muskelmänner, Rücken an Rücken verbunden wie siamesische Zwillinge, nach unten in einem einzigen, säulenartigen Stumpf auslaufend, blicken mit ihren leeren, pupillenlosen Augen in die Ferne. Die Arme mit glatten Schnitten abgelöst, sind sie in ihrem fragmentierten Zustand zu ewiger Passivität und beobachtendem Stillstand verdammt. Wie beim römischen Gott Janus weisen ihre Häupter in entgegengesetzte Richtungen und verkörpern die Unvereinbarkeit der bis in die Unendlichkeit konkurrierenden Extreme wie Werden und Vergehen, Leben und Tod, Vergangenheit und Zukunft.
