Gerhard Hadert
Gerhard Hadert (born July 3, 1901 in Roßlau (Elbe) , † January 2, 1977 in Potsdam ) was a German painter and graphic artist .
Life
Gerhard Hadert came to Nowawes as a painter's assistant in the early twenties and studied from October 1921 to June 1926 at the Berlin University of Fine Arts under the direction of Bruno Paul and Hans Poelzig . At the end of his studies, he was involved in painting the auditorium of the Charlottenburg City Opera. After completing his studies, Hadert lectured at the Army College in Stettin. The well-known architect Hans Pölzig appointed Hadert in 1932 as a professor of wall painting at the Berlin University. After the National Socialists came to power, he lost his office and worked as a freelancer until he was called up. After the war, Hadert remained loyal to Potsdam and exhibited his works in Potsdam in 1946 and 1951. During the completion of a mural there was a conflict with the artists' association, as a result of which Hadert withdrew completely from the public. In the last 25 years of his life Hadert developed his own painting technique, which he called relief painting . The pictures were created by repeatedly applying individual dots of oil paint; Hadert worked on some of the pictures for almost twenty years. Half a year before his death, Hadert had one last major exhibition on the Friendship Island in Potsdam.
