Fritz Nuss is a German painter, sculptor and medalist, as well as a draftsman.
During his long creative life he created many sculptural works of art, which have been recognized at numerous exhibitions around the world. The theme of the sculptor Fritz Nuss's entire life was the human body, which he was able to depict in new facets and poses. His works captivate with purity of lines, monumental language, plasticity of form and a special, chamber emotionality and sensuality. Nuss created both small and large sculptures for public spaces; he designed the Elli-Heuss-Knapp memorial fountain in Stuttgart and many other large sculptures and fountains in Aalen, Freudenstadt, Göppingen, Stuttgart, etc.
Nuss was also a recognized medallist. The works he created can today be found in many famous coin collections around the world. At the end of his life, the half-blind artist, unable to sculpt, created many drawings that just as much praise the beauty of the human body.
