Description: Jesus on the Cross, 1955, Religious Drawing/Sketch (6) by Alois J. Springer Jesus on the Cross, 1955, Religious Drawing/Sketch (6) by Alois J. Springer Alois J. Springer (1902-1971) Alois J. Springer was born on April 9, 1902 in Buchau and died on February 22, 1971 in Erlenmoos. He was a renowned German painter from Upper Swabia whose artistic work was shaped by the landscape and traditions of his homeland. Growing up in Bad Buchau, Springer began his artistic career with an apprenticeship as a painter, followed by studies at the Ulm Art School from 1924 to 1929. After his studies, he worked as a graphic designer from 1935 and maintained a studio in Ravensburg, where he realized his artistic projects. Springer served in military service during World War II and settled in Ravensburg after his release from captivity in 1946. He devoted himself to a variety of artistic techniques, including oil paintings, watercolors, drawings, woodcuts, monotypes, sgraffito works, and stained glass windows. His works often featured religious motifs or scenes from his homeland, using various techniques such as screen printing and scraping techniques. Although Springer's works were well received by the public, there were no major sales success. In 1964 he moved to Erlenmoos, the birthplace of his wife Maria. There, his artistic style changed from a lyrically dreamy landscape painting to colorful, cubic motifs. Springer found in the writer Maria Müller-Gögler a companion and interpreter of his works. His death in 1971 left a void in the Upper Swabian art scene. Kurt Diemer opened an exhibition at the Ochsenhausen Fruit Box in 1990, acknowledging Springer's contribution to the art scene by saying that his work "will belong to the artistic heritage of Upper Swabia." Parts of Springer's estate have been located in the north wing of the Upper Gate in Rot an der Rot since 2016, a building originally built for the guards of the Imperial Abbey Rot an der Rot in 1714. Alois J. Springer remains unforgettable as an important representative of the Upper Swabian art scene and as an artist who has captured the essence of the landscape of his homeland with his heart.
