Life

Unadorned grave slab for Martin Schauß at the family grave in the French Cemetery II

After an apprenticeship at the Königliche Porzellan-Manufaktur Berlin (KPM) , Schauß studied sculpture at the Berlin Academy of Arts from November 1888 to September 1891 . Here he was u. a. Student of Fritz Schaper and Ernst Herter . After graduating, Schauß went to Paris for several years (1892–1895) for further training , where he studied with medalists Henri Chapu and Denys Puech at the Académie Julian . Back in Berlin, Schauß worked for KPM for a year. After winning the “Great State Prize” of the Berlin Academy in 1897, he spent a year and a half in Rome in the Villa Strohl-Fern from 1898 onwards . From 1899, Schauß worked as a freelance sculptor in Berlin. His studio was located in the garden house at An der Apostelkirche 3 in today's Berlin district of Schöneberg . In 1900 he became a member of the Berlin Freemason Lodge, the Golden Plow .

Since 1893, Schauß has regularly shown his works at the Great Berlin Art Exhibition, which takes place every year for several months . An interruption took place in 1900 and 1901. During this period, Schauß was briefly a member of the Berlin Secession and showed his works at this artists' association's own exhibition. From 1902 he was back at the Great Berlin Art Exhibition represented and 1905 even by the Berlin Association artists in the recording and arrangement commission of the exhibition selected. In 1907 a small show retrospective with around 20 works of art was shown at the Great Berlin Art Exhibition . On the occasion of this exhibition, Schauß was awarded the “Golden Medal for Art” by Kaiser Wilhelm II . In 1915, Schauß was elected to the board of the Berlin Sculptors' Association as the second secretary.

Schauß was considered a supporter of the polychromy of sculpture promoted by Georg Treu . He himself undertook attempts to treat colored materials, especially with tinted wax, which was posthumously described as "technically valuable".

Martin Schauß died at the age of 59 and was buried in the French Cemetery II .
