The Painter

Fritz Rauh has lived an inspired life. He has been inspired by war, nature, color and by his wife Alix. He is a prominent California painter who came to California from post WWII Germany after spending 6 years as a prisoner of war in a Russian prison camp. Fritz met Alix in an Art school in Braunschweig, Germany. They relocated to California in 1954. He had his First Solo Exhibit at the San Francisco De Young Museum in 1956. This is a story of an artist that, through adversity and great suffering, never abandoned his love of art. An Artist in a tradition inexorably tied to history and yet still alive with the spirit of love and passion for artistic creation.[EDIT]
