Rosmarien Weber-Markert

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Rosmarien Weber-Markert (née Weber, * 1927 in Todtmoos ; † December 12, 2010 in Düsseldorf ) was a German painter who dealt with the representation of nature in her early work and turned to abstract painting in the later creative years.

Life

Rosmarien Weber studied from 1948 to 1954 at the Karlsruhe Art Academy and in Basel. Her artistic work received impulses in particular from the artist Willy Kiwitz in Karlsruhe. In 1954 she married the painter Walter Markert . The artist couple had three children. After many years in Ludwigshafen am Rhein , where she worked as an art teacher at the Theodor-Heuss-Gymnasium, a new residential building with a studio was built in Battenberg in the Palatinate in 1975 . This was also the highlight of her artistic work, numerous works were created. Many exhibitions - mostly together with Walter Markert - followed.

She got inspiration for her artistic work on trips to southern France, especially to Provence. Rosmarien Weber-Markert was represented in all important exhibitions of the artist group “Der Anker”, founded in Ludwigshafen in 1950.
