~  German Magic Realism - Other Artists  ~
 

        Franz Roh enumerated numerous traits that distinguished Magic Realism from Expressionism. The new movement gave rise to many less well-known artists, rediscovered by historians in the latter part of the 20th Century. Anton Räderscheidt was influenced by De Chirico's early Metaphysical paintings.Barthel Giles and Karl Hubbuch distinguished themselves as outstanding draftsmen. They were also both antifascists, and as a result they were forbidden to exhibit by the Nazis. Gert Wollheim, who shared a studio with Otto Dix in Dusseldorf, produced many interesting works. Unfortunately most of his paintings were destroyed by the Nazis or lost during World War II.
