3 unusual facts about Fritz Stuckenberg


Fritz Stuckenberg

He was born Friedrich Bernhard Stuckenberg in Munich, but moved with his family in 1893 to the northern industrial city of Delmenhorst (near Bremen), where his father took over as director of the Hansa-Linoleumwerke.

Severe illness and financial problems forced Stuckenberg nevertheless to return to his parents in "gloomy Delmenhorst" (as he writes in a letter to the Flemish dadaist Paul van Ostaijen).

A large part of his surviving work is now to be seen in the Städtische Galerie Delmenhorst.
