About the Item
Signer lower right, 'Craemer' for Kurt Craemer (German, 1912-1961) and dated 1954.
Born in Saarbrucken, Craemer first attended the Academy of Cologne in 1928 where he worked under Friedrich Ahlers-Hesterman. He later traveled to Paris with his teacher, where he was introduced to the work of Henri Matisse. From 1930-33, Craemer lived in Düsseldorf where he studied at the Art Academy under Paul Klee. With the Nazi's ascent to power late that year, Craemer moved to Italy and lived there at the Art colony in Ischia until the end of the war when he moved to Positano.
Throughout the 1950's, Kurt Craemer continued to live in Italy exhibited with success internationally, including at the Venice Biennale (1952, 1958), the Hella Nebelung gallery in Düsseldorf (1953) and the Düsseldorf Art Association (1963). He also exhibited in Switzerland, Germany and Italy and in the United States. Craemer's work, most of which was created in Positano in the late 1940s and 1950s, represents an important chapter in the history of the art of the province of Salerno. In 2012, the centenary of the artist's birth, the city of Positano commemorated Kurt Craemer with a special centenary celebration.
