Toni Stadler Toni Stadler

(1888-1982)

Toni Stadler was born in Munich in 1888 as the son of the landscape painter Anton von Stadler. He was a German sculptor and draftsman. From 1906 to 1907 he studied at the Kunstgewerbeschule in Munich and from 1909 at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich. Between 1909 and 1911 he completed his training under August Gaul in Berlin. From 1914 he was in the First World War for four years. From 1919 until 1924 Stadler attended the Munich Academy and learned from Hermann Hand and from 1927 from Aristide Maillol in Paris. In 1925 he married Hedda von Kaulbach, the daughter of the painter Friedrich August von Kaulbach. His second marriage to the artist Priska von Martin lasted 40 years. In 1938 Toni Stadler healed himself in Florence, where he met Hans Purrmann, from which an intense acquaintance developed. In 1939 he was awarded the title of professor by Aolf Hitler. From 1942 Stadler was a professor at the Städelschule in Frankfurt am Main. Between 1946 and 1958, Stadler held a professorship at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich, where he was appointed Vice President in 1953. From 1951 to 1973, Stadler was part of the board of directors of the German Association of Artists. Influenced by the encounter with the works of Marino Marinis and Henri Laurens, the artist designed his late sculptures as structures between the shape of a vessel and a human figure. Since the 1950s, Stadler has received a large number of medals, prizes and honorary memberships in artists‘ associations. Toni Stadler was involved in documenta 1 (1955), documenta II (1959) and documenta III in Kassel in 1964. The artist died in Munich in 1982.

Typology plays an important role in Toni Stadler’s art. His works move between a southern German baroque tradition and an archaic visual language. He avoids a lifelike representation and a portrait-like character. His sculptural works often developed in torsos, because he tried to find the perfect form and worked the sculpture down to its final reduction.
