Ernst Magnus Weidemann (born December 17, 1880 in Hamburg ; † October 9, 1967 in Keitum ) was a German pastor , painter , graphic artist , photographer and author . He was a co-founder of nudism in life reform .

Life

Hamburg

Magnus Weidemann was born as the son of a full teacher at the Kleiner Schäferkamp high school , Magnus Johann Heinrich Weidemann and his wife Auguste Claudine Maria, née. Langbehn, born in Hamburg. His younger brother Karl August Heinrich was born four years later. By observing his artistically gifted brother Theodor, who was nine years his senior, his interest in drawing and painting grew. When he died early, he received his painting and drawing implements as well as an English-language book on watercolor painting . By 1894 at the latest, the family lived at Bismarckstrasse 2 in the Generalsviertel . Magnus Weidemann attended Wilhelm-Gymnasium .

His teacher Richard Linde , who was friends with the Kunsthalle director Alfred Lichtwark , became aware of his talent and arranged for him special admission to the Hamburger Kunsthalle , which he visited almost every Sunday. There he was enthusiastic about works by Caspar David Friedrich , Philipp Otto Runge , Anselm Feuerbach , Max Klinger , Arnold Böcklin , Valentin Ruths , Giovanni Segantini and above all Eugen Bracht , as well as works by French and German impressionists , which Lichtwark bought and bought issued. When it became more difficult for Lichtwark to exhibit Hamburg Impressionists in the Kunsthalle, this led to the establishment of the Hamburg Artists' Club in 1897 . From 1898 onwards, Weidemann mainly painted small watercolors, which already bore the characteristics of his entire painterly oeuvre, revealed through the special empathy for the often delicate or bitter beauty of nature.

Education

Tower of St. Clemens Church in Nebel on Amrum , which Magnus Weidemann designed in 1908

The parents from Ostholstein always spent their holidays with their children in Glücksburg . In accordance with the wishes of his parents, Magnus Weidemann decided to study theology instead of going to an art academy, but continued to paint while studying. From 1900 to 1901 he studied Protestant theology at the Eberhard Karls University in Tübingen . During this time, his family also completely moved to Glücksburg. He then continued his theology studies at the Christian Albrechts University in Kiel and at the Ernst Moritz Arndt University in Greifswald , where he got to know Rügen and Hiddensee . He was a member of the student associations of the Wingolfsbund Tübinger Wingolf , Kieler Wingolf and Greifswalder Wingolf. In addition to many studies, drawings and watercolors, the first bookplates were also created during this time . In 1903 he designed the first for himself, in 1905 others followed for Franziska Kraus 'private school at Waitzstrasse 2 in Kiel, which was recognized as a girls' school in 1908 , and for the Kiel bookstore Lipsius & Tischer . His longed-for first nude model was his cousin, who also became his first wife. Attending an art academy failed after studying theology because of his father-in-law's veto.

Amrum

In 1908 he traveled alone to Amrum , where he took up his first pastor's position in Nebel in the St. Clemens Church for a year. When a tower was to be built for the old church, he was able to dissuade the church council from a neo-Gothic design and convinced them to accept his own design, which in its simplicity corresponded better to the Frisian landscape. In addition to the draft, drawings and the first larger oil paintings , motifs were also created that were printed on postcards. He came into contact with Sylt for the first time on a trip to Hörnum .

Lapwing row

After a short parish substitution in the Marktkirche in Blankenese , with numerous studies on the Elbe, he moved into the small parsonage of the chapel in Kiebitzzeile , a village in Königsmoor near Elmshorn , to take up his new pastor's position, which he held until 1920 with an interruption of two years . The First World War broke out in August 1914 , which shook him deeply. He volunteered as a medic with the Red Cross and came to France . In his free time he made drawings of buildings, people and the landscape with French colored pencils, mainly in the area around Chauny , Laon and La Fère . At the time his wife, who had become a nurse at the Red Cross, was deployed in Kiel and Warsaw , his father died in Glücksburg and one of his brothers died in Flanders . After two years he was reclaimed for his home pastoral office and he returned to Kiebitzreihe in 1916. The childless marriage was separated by mutual consent. The empty rectory was immediately furnished like a studio. He started a catalog raisonné and hired a housekeeper. She brought a foster child into the house, twelve-year-old Ina, who impressed Weidemann with her sensitivity and understanding of art. He painted them in oil at least once, in 1918. That year he also took part in an etching course at the Hamburg School of Applied Arts . In 1919 he met the dancer Molli Mollenhauer, who became one of his models and in 1920 his wife. In 1919 he came into contact with the youth movement , at whose annual meetings he and his wife took part in the Kronacher Bund . Even before that, influenced by Ferdinand Avenarius magazine Der Kunstwart and Art Nouveau , he had affirmed and supported the life reform movements. The autodidactic artist gave up his pastoral profession and sold all his paintings to a Copenhagen patron in 1920 , so that he could build a house for himself in the nearby Siethwende in Sommerland, the Sonnenhof, based on his own designs .

Sonnenhof

The Sonnenhof got a high studio and a secluded garden, in which many nude photos were taken in the years that followed. Invited by the youth movement, he traveled to the Harz , Weser , Saxony , Silesia and Switzerland, among other places . The influence of Art Nouveau and symbolism can be clearly seen in the numerous bookplates and etchings of this time, the influence of Fidus , who later became a long-time friend, is again evident in the graphic design. Until 1925, the Sonnenhof was the seat of the publishing house and the editorial office of the nudist magazine Die Freude , of which he was the first editor in 1923. Almost 50 written articles and 87 image reproductions and recordings from his hand were created for the magazine. The house was a meeting place for many members of the youth movement, especially the Geestland dance group , to which his wife belonged. In 1925, he accepted an order from the museum director Otto Lehmann to make wall paintings for the geological department of the Altona Museum . After studies on trips with Otto Lehmann and the geologist Karl Gripp , five large paintings of Schleswig-Holstein landscapes were created, the dunes and mud flats on Sylt, the Red Cliff , the Morsum Cliff , inland dunes on the edge of the Kremper Marsch and the tunnel valley near Ratzeburg .

Sylt

The youth movement also drew Magnus Weidemann to Sylt, where he spent every summer from 1921 in Klappholttal , where the Free German camp flourished under the direction of Knud Ahlborn and Ferdinand Goebel . In 1925 he acquired Goebel's Uthland Frisian captain's house from 1776 in Keitum and relocated to Sylt, where he arrived on January 1, 1926. The house was expanded and after his wife moved to Cologne to train as a dance teacher, Anna Beusen, also Antje , from Flensburg , took over the housekeeping . In 1932 she became his third wife. In 1932 there was a trip to Sweden . In 1935 he created murals for the Fire Protection Museum in Kiel. In 1937 he had his friend, the architect Fritz Höger , design a stylish extension for his house, which was built in the same year. Weidemann was friends with the Kiel painter Heinrich Blunck (1891–1963). Between 1940 and 1942 he traveled to Bavaria , Berlin and East Prussia . During this time, landscape painting was banned on Sylt. On May 5, 1943, Weidemann wrote to the painter Ingwer Paulsen , who had been released from military service for reasons of age and was thinking of a picturesque new beginning on Sylt:

“But there is really nothing that can be done during the war . First, you need an entry permit from the District Office to come here at all. Second, all painting and drawing in the open air is forbidden - in fact, any pictorial representation of the landscape. "

At the request of the Sylt Archive in Westerland , Magnus Weidemann made uncolored ink drawings of his Sylt motifs in 1952. At the age of eighty-five he traveled to Paris with his wife . He also worked daily in the sick bed and dictated the last scriptures to his wife. He died on October 9, 1967 in Keitum and was buried on the cemetery wall of the Keitum Church of St. Severin .

Magnus Weidemann was a member of the Reich Association of Fine Artists in Germany , the Schleswig-Holstein Art Cooperative and the Kronacher Bund, as well as an honorary member of the German Association for Naturism (DFK) and the Naturschutz Insel Sylt association .

His works are among others in the Sylt local history museum Söl 'ring Foriining ( sylterisch for Sylt Association ) in street Am Kliff 19 in Keitum, in the Nordsee Museum , which in 1980 already about 85 works owned by him in Museumsberg Flensburg , at the City Museum Warleberger Hof in Kiel, in the Ostholstein Museum Eutin , in the Altona Museum in Hamburg and in the State History Collection of the Schleswig-Holstein State Library in Kiel. He is also represented with one or more works in the collection of the Letter Foundation in Cologne. In the Sylt Heimatmuseum there is also a plaster bust of Magnus Weidemann, which Hermann Reimnitz (1893–1976) created using a casting process in the 1950s. In the Weidemann archive at Friedensallee 27 in Hamburg-Ottensen , which is managed by his great-nephew Martin Weidemann, numerous manuscripts, correspondence, photos, image directories and reproductions from the estate of Magnus Weidemann have been looked after since 1975. In order to complete the catalog of works there, information about the whereabouts of original works, especially from early years, is welcome.

The Weidemannstraße in Keitum, where the Weidemannhaus is located, and the Magnus-Weidemann-Weg in Kiebitzzeile are named after Magnus Weidemann .

The meteorologist , oceanographers and oceanographer Hartwig Weidemann (1921-2009) and Volker Weidemann (1924-2012), an astrophysicist at the University of Kiel, were nephews of Magnus Weidemann.
