Hitler's paintings. Monk Tue Jan 17 19:31:47 2017 No.2820916 [Reply] [Original]

Hey /ic/. Next year I'll go off to college to study either computer science or quantum physics, meaning my art understanding is very rudimentary.
I have messed around in Photoshop (I'll post some pics if anyone asks) but I don't know any big rules about paper drawing/paintings.
With this in mind, why did Adolf Hitler not get accepted in the Geneva Art School with paintings such as pic related?
Thanks in advance.

He had strong architectural drawings but the retard applied to a school that was geared toward more abstract art. He actually sperged out and started burning and defacing all the abstract art he could find after he came into power cause it pissed him off so much. I'm pretty sure he could've been employed as some sort of artist if he did commercial or more representational art.

I recently looked into his biography trying to understand what the fuck was the connection between the Vienna (not Geneva) Fine Arts School rejecting him and him being a fuckwit who wanted to start a war.

He had a pretty shitty life growing up and he blew the funds that his mom saved up for him to go to school on basically dicking around. I think he also sold her house from what I remember, and blew that money as well.

So he slept on park benches for awhile. He was mentally disturbed and the only person who could care to listen to his ramblings was his roommate.

His roommate went on to be a successful musician at the Vienna Conservatory, and Hitler stayed the usual drop out failure.

His attitude isn't unlike what I see around me, which makes his biography all the more fucked up.

The school rejected him on the basis that his life drawing and human form was weak. Most likely he had avoided drawing features like faces/heads, hands and feet.

They had public life drawing classes back then as well. I guess he didn't care to improve.

It's not Geneva Art school. It's Vienna Academy of Fine arts.

>>2820944
False, he was most likely rejected because he didn't finish high school and he only did drawing architectural drawings. He sucked at drawing figures. The reviewer believed that Hitler was better off becoming an architect than a fine artist.

Hitler had talent for buildings but he was shit at figures and portraits, the teachers told him he should become a drafts man instead but in order to do that he'd have to go back and complete high school which he refused to do. so he just fucked about on the streets of vienna for a couple of years painting post cards.

Theres reading the sticky, and then theres not drawing whats right in front of your fucking face.

Hitler should have just been a cartoonist and become the ben garrison of the 1930s and become popular with all the edgy /germ/tard. Its clear his writing had mass appeal judging by mein kamf.

Hitler wasn't able to draw people very well and had issues with perspective in his drawings. Of course, this is the kind of thing that you would go to a formal school to learn, but oh well lol.

This pic is so fucking retarded since those artists that graduated would never have done so with the works displayed there and it certainly wasnt encouraged by the vienna art academy st the time to make such works.
But for some reasons polcucks keep reposting it.
