Life

The farmer's son initially worked in his parents' farm and attended from 1924 to 1927 at the School of Applied Arts in Innsbruck the technical school for wood sculptor at Hans Pontiller . After several years of apprenticeship as a carpenter, he studied from 1933 to 1935 at the State School for Applied Arts in Munich with Josef Henselmann , Karl Killer and Carl Sattler and from 1937 to 1941 at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich with Karl Killer and Richard Knecht .

In 1940 he married Elisabeth Ostermeier, who worked in the office of the German Society for Christian Art and who supported him throughout his creative period. After serving in the Second World War  and being a prisoner of war, Staud first lived in Steinach am Brenner before moving with the family to Mils near Hall . There he built a house with a studio and worked as a freelance artist until 1973. He mainly created religious sculptures and nativity scenes, preferably in natural stone and oak. His style developed from naturalism to an expressive formal language.

His brother Franz Staud was also a sculptor.
