Standing Georg Müller

Born in Munich in 1880, Georg Müller moved to the USA with his parents at the age of six and grew up in Chicago. In 1900, he returned to Europe, worked at the Paris World’s Fair and subsequently studied, amongst other places, at the Munich Academy of Fine Arts under Wilhelm von Rümann. He became a member of the Munich Secession and was awarded the gold medal at the International Art Exhibition in Munich in 1913. With various portrait busts, including that of the composer Max Reger, as well as sculptures for public spaces, such as the Bear Fountain in Munich’s Schwabing district, Müller made a name for himself in the 1920s and 1930s, particularly in southern Germany. The ‘Standing Figure’ was exhibited at the Great German Art Exhibition in 1937 and was later also shown at the Venice Biennale. Works by Georg Müller can be found, amongst others, in the collections of the Lenbachhaus and the Pinakothek der Moderne in Munich. | 1880 – München – 1952 | Moderne Kunst | Skulptur/Objekt/Multiple | Nummer: 26x1754
