Life and Artistic Journey
Born in Essen, Germany, Walter Becker was a painter, ceramicist, and graphic artist. His early training included studies at the Kunstgewerbeschule Essen, where he focused on applied graphics, life drawing, and woodcarving. During his formative years, he also worked with ceramics for the Majolika Manufaktur Karlsruhe. His academic path led him to the Kunstakademie Dresden, where he was a master student in the sculpture class of Karl Albiker. In 1923, he married Yvonne von König, and the couple lived in Berlin before moving to Southern France in 1924. During their time in Cassis, Becker engaged with various notable figures, including André Derain and Georges Braque.
Becker's career saw him return to Germany in 1936, living in Munich, Utting, and Bühl before settling in Tutzing. He served as a professor at the Kunstakademie Karlsruhe from 1951 until 1958. In his later years, following the death of his wife in 1957, he spent time on Elba and eventually moved to a senior residence in Dießen. His later work was characterized by an abstracting style, particularly after his eyesight began to fail.
