Anton Räderscheidt was a German painter who was a leading figure of the New Objectivity. Räderscheidt was born in Cologne. His father was a schoolmaster who also wrote poetry. From 1910 to 1914, Räderscheidt studied at the Academy of Düsseldorf. He was severely wounded in the First World War, during which he fought at Verdun. After the war he returned to Cologne, where in 1919 he cofounded the artists' group Stupid with other members of the local constructivist and Dada scene. The group was short-lived, as Räderscheidt was by 1920 abandoning constructivism for a magic realist style. In 1925 he participated in the Neue Sachlichkeit ("New Objectivity") exhibition at the Mannheim Kunsthalle.
Fritz Schaefler was a German graphic artist. He was known for his expressionist paintings, drawings, and prints.
Schaefler studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich and later taught at the Folkwang University of the Arts in Essen. His early work was influenced by the German Expressionist movement, and he was associated with the group "Die Brücke" (The Bridge), which included other notable artists such as Ernst Ludwig Kirchner and Emil Nolde.
Schaefler's work is characterized by bold, vibrant colors and energetic brushstrokes. He often depicted landscapes, cityscapes, and still-life scenes, infusing them with a sense of emotion and vitality. He also produced a significant body of graphic work, including woodcuts and lithographs.
Schaefler's work was exhibited extensively during his lifetime, including at the Venice Biennale, the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam, and the Museum of Modern Art in New York. He was also awarded numerous honors and awards for his work.
