biography of Arthur Geissler

Arthur Geissler was a versatile artist. He made a name for himself as a painter and graphic artist and became a well-known stage actor at a later age. Geissler studied at the Applied Arts School in Weimar from 1906 to 1909 and at the same time took painting lessons at the Dresden Academy. In this period, as in the years after, his work is still strongly influenced by the impressionism of his teacher Ferdinand Dorsch. In the 1920s and 1930s his paintings - mostly landscapes - subsequently become brighter in colour and more modernistic. The painter undertook many study trips during his life. Much of his work was destroyed during a bombing raid on Dresden in 1945.
