рогер лёвиг (1930 - 1997)
Roger Loewig was a German artist, illustrator and writer.
In addition to working as a teacher of Russian, German and history, Loewig independently practiced painting and drawing. In 1963, he organized an exhibition of his work, but was arrested on charges of "incitement endangering the state". Most of his paintings and literary texts were confiscated.
In 1972, he left for the Federal Republic of Germany, where he found recognition for his talent. Along with Günter Grass, Christoph Meckel and others, he joined the wide circle of "Berlin poets-artists", and Loewig's visual art became recognized as fantastic realism. Loewig's artworks and texts about war, flight, exile, and unfreedom placed him among the most important German artists of the postwar period.
