The work of Otto Hitzberger reflects his classical training as a third-generation Bavarian woodcarver – a skill that grew in style and medium through the twentieth century as he became a widely traveled citizen of the world. Hitzberger worked by commission with traditional subjects, often religious, in the German Expressionist style. The collection he has left us – comprising more than 20,000 works in sculpture, paintings, and drawings – represents a body of work that reflects nearly a century of artistic expression and development.
