The Painter and Draftsman Wilhelm Philipp: From Bauhaus Student to Decorative Painter
Lecture by Hans-Michael Schulze
In 1925, without an entrance exam or trial period, Oskar Moll accepted the very young Wilhelm Philipp into his studio in Breslau. Soon afterward, Wassily Kandinsky and Paul Klee helped shape his incredible talent at the Bauhaus in Dessau. The Nazis branded his body of work as “degenerate”: Disappointed, Philipp withdrew to Niederschönhausen, ran a studio for blueprints, and painted portraits of friends and colleagues. After 1945, Soviet cultural policy drove him into the American occupation zone. In Darmstadt, he became known as a painter-turned-taxi-driver.
This lecture by historian Hans-Michael Schulze brings this underrated master back into the spotlight.Translated with DeepL
