In 1951, he began an apprenticeship in wood carving in Garmisch-Partenkirchen and attended the School of Wood Carving in Partenkirchen from 1955. He worked as a restorer during the reconstruction of the Munich Residenz. In 1960, he returned to Kleinwalsertal and opened his own sculptor's studio, which unfortunately was lost in a fire in 1962. Since 1967, Detlef Willand dedicated himself intensely to the graphic art form of woodcuts, drawing his themes primarily from the realms of mysticism, natural sciences, philosophy, and religion. He became a member of the artist group of the Hans-Thoma-Society in 1972 and had his first solo exhibition in 1977 at the Städtische Galerie Albstadt, followed by numerous exhibitions both nationally and internationally. In 1981 and 2014, he had solo exhibitions at the Galerie im Unteren Tor in Bietigheim-Bissingen. Detlef Willand was awarded the Oberallgäu Art Prize (1985), honored by the Stiftung Bibel und Kultur (2000), and received the certificate of honor from the 6th Triennale Mondiale D’Estampes. He was also awarded the Johann Georg Grimm Prize by the Cultural Promotion Circle Allgäu in 2005 and, in 2012, the Federal Decoration of Honor of the Republic of Austria for his contributions to Walser folk culture. He passed away on January 3, 2022, at the age of 86 in Hirschegg in Kleinwalsertal.
