Does anyone know why Hitler got rejected from art school?

He demonstrates he has the capacity to learn. His rendering is shit, but it could be remedied.

>> No.2847330

You should watch this documentary if you have Netflix: Raiders of the Lost Art: Hitler's Art Dealer.

what you need to understand is that unlike modern art universities, ones of old usually accepted students based on the style of art that was popular at the time, which was the modern art movement in this case. Hitler was more in the traditionalist style of art.

He sucked dick at figures, was told to study architecture, was too much of a special snowflake to consider that might be his true calling. Then he gassed some jews.

The Jews were undermining western civilization as always and Hitler wouldn't get with the program. Hitler tried to save us but lost and the Jews were successful and so now anything can be called art and anyone can go to art school regardless of ability, as long as they have the shekels. But even that wasn't enough so they are importing armies of art-destroying and art-hating peoples into Europe these days.

just visit /pol/ and you'll learn all about it.

This is a myth iirc. The idea that Hitler had some kind of psychological inability to draw the human figure was a story concocted by some jewish biographer who was trying to pinpoint the seed of evil in Hitler's youth - the argument was that the human figure was beyond him because he was so evil and hated all of humanity that drawing people was impossible for him.

Actually he was better at the human figure than the huge majority of /ic/. Pic related. He wanted to go to school to get better at art, which was why he was applying. Most noobie artists are worse at the human figure than Young Hitler was.

So I'm reading this article about it and the dean of art is saying that Hitler's sketches are mediocre, weak, and show a lack of technical skill. He's basically saying that he's below beginner tier and wouldn't be accepted into a art college back then or even now.

Is this guy for real? It sounds like he's full of shit.

what the fuck the academy was traditionalist as fuck back then. Look at what kind of drawings Schiele had to make there. Just plaster cast drawings and models in a classical style. The whole weird gouaches and nervous drawings was something he developed afterwards and thanks to klimt.

Perplexing thing about it all is the timing.

Art had just gone to complete shit with modernism and lack of good training. Henry, Bargue, Solomon, Gammell and others discuss it.

Was Vienna really all that different compared to other schools at the time? I bet they got cucked too. And the art world and training of artists suffered for it greatly.

>> No.2847876

>>2847323
>>2847348

The reasoning was because he only sent in 2 figure drawings and well over 15 architecture works. The school said he didn't have his priorities right because it was so focused on anatomy and figure drawing. His 1 portrait and 1 figure drawing wasn't bad but it was sloppy compared to his architecture work.

That's why he got rejected and I think it's very reasonable. He could have easily tried again and made it, but I am pretty sure he didn't want to shift his focus so much on figure drawing.

It would only really be possible to make a guess as to why he got rejected by seeing the work of the people who got accepted. Art schools only ever take the best applicants. However good he was, maybe a sufficient number of others were better.

This reveals his total lack of understanding of the human body, and art in general.

There's no form here. It's obviously not built out of boxes. There's a complete and utter lack of construction.

He probably didn't know perspective to the extent people say he did.

Everything he does in his work can be easily mimicked in a Sunday afternoon perspective class.
