Curt Querner, a representative of the New Objectivity movement and a painter of realism, led an impressive life. Born on April 7, 1904, in Börnchen and passed away on March 10, 1976, in Kreischa, he developed his unique perspective on the world due to his parents' deafness. After training as a locksmith, he worked in various factories before starting his studies at the Dresden Academy of Fine Arts in 1926.

Querner financed his studies through various jobs and walked from his hometown of Börnchen to the art academy. Influenced by the political developments of his time, he left the academy prematurely in 1930 to engage in political activities. He joined the artist group Asso and the Communist Party (KPD), but later distanced himself from political party work.

During the 1930s, Querner lived on unemployment benefits, even though he painted intensively every day. 

During World War II, Querner served in the Wehrmacht and subsequently spent several years as a prisoner of war. After his return to Börnchen in 1947, as his Dresden apartment had been destroyed by bombs, he struggled with financial difficulties. However, in the late 1940s, significant paintings were acquired by renowned galleries

Querner was represented in many important exhibitions in the Eastern Zone and later in the German Democratic Republic (GDR). From the 1960s onwards, he was rediscovered by the official art scene of the GDR as a proletarian-revolutionary artist, leading to a growing recognition of his works.

❄️Scenes of Winter by Austrian painter Franz Sedlacek. The artist, whose work often took a gloomier tone, faught for the Nazi regime during WWII, battling on the front lines in Poland Russia and Norway. However he has been credited with saying “In my work I can say with colors what I think of my contemporaries without being sent to a concentration camp” … a surprising statement to be sure. He was declared missing in 1945, but was not pronounced dead until 1972! #scenesofwinter #franzsedlacek #art #artist #painter #artists #artworld #austrianpainter #newobjectivity #magicalrealism #winterscenes #ski #skiier #skiing #wintergames #watercolorpainting #oilpainting #huile #winterwonderland #kunst #künstler #peinture
