Albert Schiestl-Arding (born April 27, 1883 in Erding , † February 14, 1937 in Bremen ) was a German painter who can be assigned to expressive realism .

Life

After secondary school and apprenticeship in an Augsburg cloth wholesaler, Schiestl-Arding studied at the Munich Art Academy from 1901 to 1903 and then took private lessons from Munich painters until 1905. Due to physical weakness, both an attempt to emigrate to America and an active participation in the war failed, but he was deployed as a medic on the Western Front. In 1916 he moved to Worpswede with his wife Annemarie Holländer and his daughter and began painting. His marriage failed in 1922, and in the following year he lost the work he had created before due to a fire in his studio. After a stay in a sanatorium, he took up painting again, moved to Worpswede again in 1926 and was able to show his pictures at several exhibitions. The creative period that followed was interrupted by a crisis in the second marriage to actress Irmgard Schott. In 1936 Schiestl-Arding fell ill with pulmonary tuberculosis , to which he succumbed the following year.

Albert Schiestl-Arding was a member of the German Association of Artists .
