Emil Bartoschek (30 July 1899 in Czuchow, Silesia – 26 February 1969 in Waldbrunn, Hesse, Germany)[1] was a German painter and Bauhaus-artist.
Due to the turbulent political situation in the border area of Poland and German Silesia, he left Weimar, and in 1921 went to study at the State Academy of Fine and Applied Arts in Breslau (today: Wroclaw).
For commercial and political reasons he made popular impressionist and naturalist paintings of the landscape of Brandenburg, which were sold through the galleries of Sarcander and Kallide, at the Friedrichstrasse, in large quantities.
As he was afraid to be arrested by the Nazis producing "degenerate art", his real artistic work was presented in a very small circle, and only a few of these modernist paintings and drawings were sold.
In 1949 he separated from his first wife, and he married his former student Hildegard Grunert, who taught ceramics and decorative painting in Cologne.
