Gustav Gildemeister (Bremen 1876 - Popielany/Litauen 1915) - Sell & Buy
German painter. G. studied at the Düsseldorf Academy from 1893-98. He was active in Munich, where he came into contact with the formal world of Art Nouveau. In 1904 he settled in Arolsen in northern Hesse. There, Pointillism became his first step toward abstraction, and later he created monumental, flat figures whose formal language earned him the commission to paint the church in Arolsen. In 1910 he moved with his family to Hamburg. He was killed in action on the Eastern Front in 1915. Because of his upper-class background, G. did not have to sell any paintings, and during his lifetime there was only one exhibition in 1914 at the Cologne Werkbund. It was not until an exhibition at the Kunsthalle Bremen in 1988 that his work was rediscovered. Mus.: Bremen (Kunsthalle) Lit.: AKL, Der Neue Rump
