The artist:
Hubertus Giebe was born as the first son of Margarete and Reinhold Giebe. The family was based in Schlottwitz, not far from Dohna. from 1969 to 1972 he completed evening studies in painting and graphics at the Dresden Academy of Fine Arts with Ursula Rzodeczko and Gerhard David. He then did military service from 1972 to 1974. In 1974 he became acquainted with Erwin and Eva Strittmatter, which led to an intensive artist friendship that resulted in joint works. from 1974 to 1976 Giebe studied painting and graphics at the Dresden University of Fine Arts. In 1976, Giebe was exmatriculated at his own request and worked as a freelance painter and graphic artist with a "temporary limited work permit". In 1978 he completed his studies with an external diploma at the Academy of Visual Arts in Leipzig. He then spent a year in Leipzig as a master student of Bernhard Heisig.
In 1980 he had his first major solo exhibition at the Comenius Gallery in Dresden. 1979 marked the beginning of his graphic work on the novel Die Blechtrommel by Günter Grass. from 1982 to 1986 he headed the basic artistic studies for painting and graphics at the Dresden Academy of Fine Arts together with Johannes Heisig. In 1987 Giebe was appointed lecturer in painting and graphics at the HfBK Dresden. In 1988, Giebe presented 40 etchings for a bibliophile edition of The Tin Drum. On November 19, 1989, Giebe gave a speech for freedom of expression, democracy and political change at the demonstration of the Dresden artists' associations in front of around 100,000 participants on the Dresden Theaterplatz. He campaigned for the political goals of the New Forum.
One of the traditions of the widely ramified and solidary Giebe family is a fundamentally social-democratic attitude. In 1933 the grandfather, Willy Giebe, was arrested by the National Socialists because he had been active as a trade unionist and in the Social Democratic Party. At the beginning of 1945, the father deserted from the Wehrmacht during the first attack on the Oder. He was not released from Soviet captivity until the end of 1949, during which he worked in a quarry in a penal camp near Kuybischev in what was then the Soviet Republic of Kazakhstan on the lower reaches of the Volga. Both facts occupy an important place in Hubertus Giebe's biography and point in the same direction. His work reveals an affinity to those historical situations in which left and right arbitrariness sacrificed the individual to the inexorable power in the wheels of political history.
Hubertus Giebe has been married to the restorer Marlies Giebe since 1977 and lives and works in Dresden. This piece has an attribution mark,
