Ernst Graupner (born December 22, 1917 in Ingolstadt , † January 25, 1989 in Munich ) was a German painter.

Life

Ernst Graupner was born in Ingolstadt in 1917 as the third oldest of six children of administrative inspector Franz Graupner and housewife Elsa Graupner, née Scharf. He received his first artistic impulses at the humanistic Reuchlin-Gymnasium in Ingolstadt from the drawing teacher Wilhelm Krauss. Throughout his life he had a close friendship with his classmate Knut Schnurer . From 1939 to 1944 he studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich with Hermann Kaspar and Julius Heß . There he met the Swiss textile artist Annemarie Baumgartner (granddaughter of the Swiss watercolorist Christian Baumgartner), whom he married in 1953. From 1945 he worked as a freelance artist in Munich. Together with their friend from Munich architect Hans Maurer , the couple built a studio house in Munich-Nymphenburg in 1953. Their son Stefan was born in 1954. Ernst Graupner died on January 25, 1989 in Munich.

plant

Graupner has left an extensive body of drawings, paintings and images behind glass. His style was initially shaped by Fauvism , Expressionism and Cubism . His artistic approach was always figurative. In the last twenty years of his life he turned more and more to drawing and thus found a medium with which he could directly translate the exploration of the unconscious into a visual language that became characteristic of his oeuvre. Numerous murals were created in public buildings (Sparkasse, Kindergarten, Bundespost), most recently in 1982 in the Ingolstadt Clinic.
