Fidus - Art As The Temple of a New Faith

 Hugo "Fidus" Höppener (1868 – 1948)

 

"I salute you as a pioneer of the Nordic thought and life principles that are in accordance with the nature of our German people"
Richard Walther Darre - message for the 70th birthday of Fidus

"My idea of the fine arts is the temple of a new faith, the place where art in its totality is accessible to the people...Only such art, be it sound, word or image, is great, which gives the people an answer to its most sacred and most secret and, therefore, most universal questions"
FIDUS
