Hubert Hartmann
Hubert Hartmann (born June 16, 1915 ; † July 26, 2006 in Rheda-Wiedenbrück ) was an academic sculptor and church artist.
Live and act
Hartmann came from a family of sculptors in Wiedenbrück . His father, Heinrich Hartmann (1868–1937) and his brother Bernd (1905–1972) were also sculptors.
Hubert Hartmann first completed an apprenticeship with his father and then studied ten semesters at the Munich Art Academy from 1934 . At the end of his studies he was awarded the Munich State Gallery Prize and the Rome Prize, so that a year of advanced training in Rome followed. As a student of Joseph Wackerle in Munich, Hartmann worked in Rome on works of art that made him internationally known. Hartmann has been awarded prizes at art exhibitions in Vienna, Rome, Amsterdam, Munich, Düsseldorf, Münster and others. During the Nazi era , a total of seven of his works were exhibited at the Great German Art Exhibition between 1943 and 1944 . He was one of the last representatives of the Wiedenbrück school .
In 1947 Hubert Hartmann returned to Wiedenbrück after fourteen years. He had previously been in Soviet captivity.
In 1952, Hartmann designed a pageant and a festival plaque on the occasion of the city's millennium. In 1967 the sculptor was appointed by Cardinal Grand Master Eugène Cardinal Tisserant as a Knight of the Order of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem and invested in Münster on April 29, 1967 by Lorenz Cardinal Jaeger , Grand Prior of the German Lieutenancy . He was last Commander of the Order.
