Werner Scholz

*1898   +1982  

Scholz studied painting at the Berlin University of the Arts. In the 1920s and 30s he used Expressionist stylistic techniques to depict the hardships of the middle class during the war and postwar years. In 1937 his work was declared ‘degenerate art’ and forbidden from exhibition. Scholz moved to Alpbach in Tyrol and turned to biblical themes after 1945.

Discover our Collection

Discover the almost 1,200 works in our constantly growing collection in our online database. In the future, the collection will be expanded primarily through the purchases of current contemporary art associated with the art prizes. However, the jury will also recommend annual purchases to the Board of Directors to supplement the existing holdings of recent Tyrolean art history.
