Hermann Teuber, a Dresden native and student of Karl Hofer at the Berlin Academy of Arts, among others, and one of the most distinguished German painters of the interwar period, moved to Kalkar in 1943 due to the increasing bombing of Berlin.
He resided there until his appointment as Professor of Printmaking at the Berlin University of the Arts in 1950.
He taught in Berlin for eleven years, and spent his later years in Upper Bavaria and Munich, enjoying considerable productivity.
From 1948 onward, he became a key figure in the collecting activities of the van der Grinten brothers.
He was the one who advised them to collect not individual works, but entire groups of works by an artist; he drew their attention to Joseph Beuys and Rudolf Schoofs.
