About the Item

Walter Becker was born in 1893 in Essen, Ruhr, Germany. Considered an important graphic artist of the "lost generation", Becker is well known for his depictions of figures and portraits in a style that combined elements of German Expressionism, Dada, and French modernism. He worked in a variety of print media, including color lincut, lithography, woodcut and etching. After a short military service, Becker studied under the German Sculptor Karl Albiker at the Dresden Academy of Fine Arts. He moved to southern France where he lived and worked from 1924-1935, and was in contact with George Braque, Thomas Mann, and other important artistic figures of the day. Upon his return to Germany in 1937, he was ostracized as a " degenerate artist" and retired to Tutzing, just south of Munich. In 1952 he became a professor at the State Academy of Fine Arts in Karlsruhe, Germany. He died in DieBen am Ammersee in southern Germany in 1984.
