Otto Baum

Otto Baum is a German sculptor and university lecturer and member of the German Artists' Association.

He studied painting at the Stuttgart Academy of Art and sculpture at the same time. From the mid-1930s, the National Socialists who came to power in Germany forbade Baum to exhibit or even work, and he was persecuted as a representative of "degenerate art".

After the war, Otto Baum was appointed to teach at the Stuttgart Academy of Art and was regarded as the most progressive and extremely critical teacher among the young students at the academy.

Otto Baum is considered one of the most important representatives of classical modernism, who had a significant influence on European sculpture in the second half of the 20th century both through his work and as a teacher.
