Description: Religious Drawing/Sketch (35) by Alois J. Springer Religious Drawing/Sketch (35) by Alois J. Springer Alois J. Springer (1902-1971) Alois J. Springer was born on 9. April 1902 in Buchau and died on 22. February 1971 in Erlenmoos. He was a renowned German painter from Upper Swabia whose artistic work was influenced by the landscape and traditions of his homeland. Growing up in Bad Buchau, Springer began his artistic career with an apprenticeship as a painter, followed by studies at the Ulm Art School from 1924 to 1929. After completing his studies, he worked as a graphic artist from 1935 onwards and maintained a studio in Ravensburg where he realized his artistic projects. During the Second World War, Springer served in the military and settled in Ravensburg after his release from captivity in 1946. He devoted himself to a variety of artistic techniques, including oil paintings, watercolors, drawings, woodcuts, monotypes, sgraffito works and stained glass windows. His works were often characterized by religious motifs or scenes from his homeland, using various techniques such as screen printing and mezzotint. Although Springer's works were well received by the public, they failed to achieve major sales success. In 1964 he moved to Erlenmoos, the birthplace of his wife Maria. There, his artistic style changed from lyrical, dreamy landscape painting to colorful, cubic motifs. Springer found in the writer Maria Müller-Gögler a companion and interpreter of his works. His death in 1971 left a gap in the art scene of Upper Swabia. Kurt Diemer opened an exhibition at the Fruchtkasten Ochsenhausen in 1990 and acknowledged Springer's contribution to the art scene, saying that his work "will be part of the artistic heritage of Upper Swabia". Since 2016, parts of Springer's estate have been located in the north wing of the Upper Gate in Rot an der Rot, a building originally built for the guards of the Imperial Abbey of Rot an der Rot in 1714. Alois J. Springer will remain unforgettable as an important representative of the Upper Swabian art scene and as an artist who captured the essence of his homeland's landscape with his heart.
