Hermann Tiebert

Hermann Tiebert (born January 31, 1895 in Koblenz , † May 15, 1978 in Isny ) was a German painter of the new objectivity .

life and work

Hermann Tiebert attended the Kunstgewerbeschule in Karlsruhe in 1913 and the Karlsruhe Art Academy from 1914 . From 1914 to 1916 he was a student with Walter Georgi and from 1917 a student with Hans Adolf Bühler . From 1918 to 1919 he was a master student with Wilhelm Trübner . In 1921 Hermann Tiebert married the Swiss painter Emmy Daeniker . The couple moved to Ried in the Allgäu in 1929 . The couple had three daughters.

From 1927 to 1943 he had numerous exhibitions all over Germany. He turned down an offer of a professorship in Dresden in 1943.

In the course of the Nazi era, he turned from the formal language of the New Objectivity more and more to the formal language of NS art in terms of style and content . His pictures adapted to the values of the regime. Tiebert preferred portraits of German rural populations in traditional costumes as motifs. They reflect the racist ideas of the National Socialists: Race and tradition are catchphrases in the National Socialist conception of art.

Tiebert's works hang in the Staatsgalerie Stuttgart , in the Kunsthalle Karlsruhe and in the Lenbachhaus in Munich.
