Georg Flad
Georg Flad (born March 10, 1853 in Heidelberg , † June 2, 1913 in Dachau ) was a German landscape painter from the Düsseldorf School .
Life
From 1868 to 1873 Flad attended the Düsseldorf Art Academy , against the wishes of his father, a lawyer. There he became a student of the landscape painters Oswald Achenbach , Albert Flamm and Eugen Dücker . He stayed in Dücker's class in 1872/1873. From 1875 to 1877 he was a member of the Malkasten artists' association . In 1877 Flad moved to Munich , where he became a founding member of the Secession , and in 1898 to Dachau, where he had joined the local artist colony from around 1890 , to which his friends Otto Strützel and Felix Bürgers also belonged. He exhibited his often large-format landscapes, mostly from the area around Dachau and Schleissheim , at major exhibitions in Berlin, Dresden and Munich. As an early member of the German Association of Artists (DKB), Georg Flad took part in the first DKB exhibition in 1904 in the Royal Art Exhibition Building on Königplatz , which was still organized by the Munich secessionists .
The city of Dachau honored him - an original well-known there - by naming the Fladstrasse .
