Werner Scholz

Werner Scholz (1898 - 1982) was active/lived in Germany.  Werner Scholz is known for Expressionist painting.

The 17 years old Werner Scholz volunteered for the army directly after school - a decision with consequences that left their mark on his entire personality.  He lost his left forearm by a shell in 1917.  His war experiences and the social misery of the city that Scholz encountered after the war when he was at the Hochschule der Bildenden Künste in Berlin, mainly found expression in black-and-white depictions in his early works, which were soon appreciated by artistic circles and critics.  When he left the academy in 1920 and moved into his own studio, he was interested in the Brücke-painters and Emil Nolde, who also impressed by Scholz's works.  At the end of the 1920s socially committed oil paintings of Berlin's city environment emerged, before Scholz devoted himself to some triptychs, of which the majority was lost without a trace.  In 1930 the Nationalgalerie Berlin and the Wallraf-Richartz Museum in Cologne purchased pictures of the artist.
