Paul Goesch

Paul Goesch (1885 – 1940), was a German artist, architect, lithographer, and designer. He suffered from “physical and emotional frailty” throughout his life, but nonetheless maintained a robust determination to create prolifically and to further the utopian causes of the avant-garde of his time. As a student, he reportedly met both Sigmund Freud and Rudolf Steiner. He developed an interest in Anthroposophy and later helped construct the Steiner’s Goetheanum in 1913–14. Goesch began a series of “fantasy architecture” plans and sketches in 1914. The combination of artwork and psychiatric problems has brought him some attention in the context of the outsider art movement.
