Life

Hannes Rosenow was born on May 5, 1925 in Ratibor, Upper Silesia (today Racibórz , Poland). After graduating from high school, drafted for military service in 1943 and released from captivity in 1946, he studied at the Düsseldorf Art Academy with Ewald Mataré and with Eugène Narbonne at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris. The marriage with Gisela Thiele (1924-2016) in 1948 resulted in the children Katharina (* 1953) and Felix (* 1959). From 1948 to 1952, Hannes Rosenow worked in Tübingen, Paris and southern France; from 1952 on he lived as a freelance painter in Munich-Schwabing. Study trips took him through Veneto and Tuscany, to Yugoslavia and Greece, and portraits to the United States. In Munich he was part of the New Realism group alongside Albert Heinzinger, Alfred Leithäuser , Ernst Oberle, Walter Rose, Ludwig Scharl and Emil Scheibe . Hannes Rosenow was a member and from 1987–1990 President of the New Munich Artists' Cooperative and was a member of the water lily circle .

Portraits, still lifes, and southern landscapes were his preferred genres. "The motifs are clear and tart in the surface, their grace is not loveliness, but a balance between calm and tension. The decorative is less important here than the color tone or graphic outline. ... His landscapes are fascinating images of a section of nature; no chance views but ordered insights and interpretations raised into the typical and generally valid. "

From 1952 to 1994 Hannes Rosenow was represented almost every year with his own works in the great art exhibition in the Haus der Kunst in Munich; from 1994 to 1998 he was a member of the exhibition management. In 1972 he received the water lily prize for fine arts from the city of Munich. His works were bought by the city of Munich and the Free State of Bavaria, but above all by private collectors in Germany, Belgium, France, Italy, Switzerland, England and the USA.
