Theo Meier Paintings

Swiss, 1908-1982
Theo Meier was a Swiss painter. He was born in Basel in 1908, and first attended the local art school. His breakthrough as an artist came with the commissioned portrait of Jakob Schaffner. Schaffner had suggested he make the acquaintance with various artists such as Max Liebermann, Karl Hofer, Otto Dix and Emil Nolde. The encounter with Gauguin and his primitive, exotic painting impressed him greatly. Several trips brought him to the South Pacific, Thailand, Guadeloupe, Martinique or Tahiti, and Bali, among others. Inspired by the culture, the women, and the landscape of Bali, he decided to emigrate there. Therefore, his works are characterized by these exotic subjects. (Askart)

Note: Theo Meier arrived in Bali in 1936 with the intention of going on to Tahiti where he had been before. However Bali turned out to be the paradise he had been searching for in his dreams and he had no desire any more to move elsewhere. Bali at that time was still a very traditional place where society lived according to an acient religious system and in a luscious tropical setting the modern world was ignored. Here he met Walter Spies...
