Eberhard Werner
Fritz Eberhard Werner (born August 8, 1924 in Glogau / Silesia , † September 23, 2002 in Lübbecke ) was a German artist and landscape painter .
Life
The son of the newspaper publisher and printer Friedrich Werner showed his artistic talent early on, but got caught in the turmoil of World War II , after recovering from a serious war injury in the GDR, he became a teacher in Gransee and studied art in Erfurt . At the same time, he was a master student of the Liebermann student Kätze-Wichmann .
Despite his success both as an art teacher and as an artist, Eberhard Werner left the GDR in 1959 due to political and artistic restrictions. The extensive work, which was completed in North Rhine-Westphalia , initially found only limited public recognition, as he did not want to come to terms with the extensive commercialization of art. It was not until the 1980s that Werner was increasingly recognized as a landscape painter and later as a German artist.
His artistic path of reflecting and processing the multiple refractions of an almost typical German-German biography by recourse to the fixed points of nature , aesthetics and home is extensively documented.
Werner gradually lost his eyesight at the end of the 1990s , which brought his artistic activity to a standstill, and died on September 23, 2002 after a long illness in Lübbecke.
