Life

childhood

education

Home attended high school in Clausthal in the Harz Mountains and, after graduating from school in autumn 1898, was accepted at the painting and drawing school of Ernest Blanc-Garin (1843–1916) in Brussels . At the age of 22 he moved to the Munich drawing school of the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich to Moritz Weinhold.

He lived at home in Munich for three years, where he also did his military service until he moved to Karlsruhe on January 1, 1902 to continue his art studies at the State Academy of Fine Arts with Ludwig Schmid-Reutte (1862-1909).

Picturesque career

After completing his university education in 1903, he returned to Munich and tried to establish himself as an independent artist. In order to establish contacts, he joined the Munich Secession in 1919 , of which he was secretary in later years, from 1946 to 1954. In 1921 he became a member of the "Free Association of Chiemgau Artists", which called itself " Welle " and which planned exhibitions for its members on the men's and women's island. Because the Herreninsel was not available as an exhibition space, the group planned to build an exhibition pavilion in Stock near Prien on the banks of the Chiemsee. The wooden pavilion was opened on June 24, 1922, and home has exhibited there several times until 1922.

During his time in Munich, he was able to sell a number of pictures to the Bavarian state and the city of Munich. In the course of a collective exhibition in the Galerie Jordan operated by the Munich art dealer Arthur Jordan, in which he participated in 1930, some of his works were discussed in Munich newspapers, including in 1931 in the magazine “ Zeitwende ” by Professor Nasse. In the years 1924 to 1934 reproductions of some of his pictures were published in the “ Westermanns Monatshefte ” and the magazine “ Jugend ”. Home was also a participant in the Great German Art Exhibition in the " House of Art " in Munich.

Although he had been living in Munich since 1903, he did not find permanent residence in Isabellastraße until 1914 in an attic apartment with many windows that he could also use as a studio.

Works

When he joined the Munich Secession, he began to paint numerous works, which were exhibited in the Glaspalast (1917–1929 and 1931) , among other places . From 1922 he also produced works for the exhibitions of the artists' association "Die Welle". In the group's specially built pavilion, he showed his works in 1922, 1923, 1924, 1926 and 1929.

Haus mainly produced oil paintings in an impressionistic and realistic style . His motifs were group portraits and landscapes , some of the works he made in the great outdoors.
