Life and Artistic Development
Born in Oespel, Germany, Ernst Weiers was a multifaceted artist whose work spanned painting, lithography, design, sculpture, and draftsmanship. His early years were spent on his father's farm near Münster, and he spent two years working in the mining industry, where he sketched miners in their environment. His artistic talent was recognized by his stepfather, who provided him with a small studio.
Weiers studied at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf from 1929 to 1933 after receiving a scholarship. During his time there, he was a student of Paul Klee. His life was marked by significant historical events; he emigrated to Switzerland in 1933 with Paul Klee but was deported back in 1936. During World War II, he served as a soldier in Poland, France, Italy, and Russia, documenting his experiences through numerous drawings. He returned from Russian captivity in 1949. He eventually settled in Bernried am Starnberger See, where he lived until his death in 1978.
Works and Exhibitions
The artist's body of work includes various media, such as oil paintings, woodcuts, and stained glass windows. His wartime experiences and subsequent captivity influenced the themes and color palettes of his later lithographs and paintings. In the late 1950s and early 1960s, he created several stained glass windows for modern churches, including locations in Munich and Stein bei Nürnberg.
His works are held in several collections, including the Bavarian State Painting Collections, Munich. His exhibitions have taken place in numerous international locations, such as:
