Franz Hitzler

Franz Hitzler is a German painter, graphic artist and sculptor, one of the artists of the Spur movement, living and working in Munich.

He studied painting at the art school in Augsburg and at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich, and founded his own studio in Asbach-Beumenheim in 1963. Hitzler's work is not cheerful, despite all its colorfulness. Color overtakes the viewer in menacing flashes. Figurative elements depict grimaces or monsters, often combined with forms of classical Christian iconography such as the crucifixion.

Hitzler is one of Germany's strongest and most important artists, with major museum exhibitions in Germany and the United States and book-catalogues from renowned art publishers. His work is widely represented in many public and private collections, especially in graphic arts museums.
