Karl Hagenauer

Karl Hagenauer (1898 - 1956) was active/lived in Austria.  Karl Hagenauer is known for Bronze and brass art deco animal and figure sculpture.

Austrian designer Carl Hagenauer established Hagenauer Werkstatten in 1898 and produced decorative metal wares and bronzes designed in-house in the modernist and Jugendstil styles.

His factory, which exported its wares worldwide, also manufactured pieces by independent designers, such E. J. Meckel, Josef Hoffmann and Otto Prutscher.

Hagenauer entered many exhibitions in London, Paris and Berlin, where its innovative designs won numerous awards.

Carl's son Karl (1898-1956) joined the firm in 1919. After Carl's death in 1928, Karl and his brother Franz (1906-1986) expanded the workshop and began modelling and manufacturing African-inspired sculptures. The figurines were lithe and elegant, with elongated limbs and faces and elaborate hairstyles. They embodied the European concept of the inherent decorative quality and spontaneous creativity of Africa.
