Life

Nikolaus Schad was the son of the painter Christian Schad and his first wife Marcella, a daughter of the chief physician Uberto Arcangeli in Rome. After the early accidental death of his mother, who drowned in the sea in 1931, he grew up with his grandmother Maria Schad in Munich , while his father devoted himself exclusively to his artistic career and had little contact with his son.

Nikolaus Schad studied medicine in Rome and Munich. He received his doctorate in 1951 in Munich magna cum laude with a thesis on the diagnostic value of the X-ray image of the cervical spine in cervicobrachial syndrome. Schad was a recognized radio - cardiologist and university lecturer in America and Italy. From 1968 to 1973 he was a professor of radiology at Eadward Mallinckrodt Institute of Radiology of Washington University in St. Louis , Missouri . He then worked until 1989 as a senior senior physician in the radiological department of the municipal hospital in Passau, where he a. a. dealt with radiological and nuclear medicine examinations for cardiac diagnostics. In addition, until 2003, Schad held a professorship in Radiology and Imaging Sciences at the University of Siena .

Nikolaus Schad was a member of the American professional associations Association of University Radiologists (1973), Radiological Society of North America (1975) and Society of Nuclear Medicine (1985) as well as the European Society of the History of Photography (European Society for the History of Photography ) in Vienna (2001-2007).

Schad dealt intensively with his father's art and wrote numerous essays for exhibition catalogs between 1994 and 2006. In 2003, in Vienna, where he had a second residence from 1999 to 2007, he held preparatory talks for a retrospective of his father in the Leopold Museum , which was not realized until 2008/09, one year after his death. Plans to permanently exhibit his father's work in Miesbach , his birthplace , did not materialize.
