== Life ==


== Early life and education ==
Magda Hagstotz formed her convictions and got her influences in the late twenties and the early thirties. The theories of the [[Stuttgarter Schule]] – somewhat contesting the [[Bauhaus]] model - and contemporary artists such as [[Ida Kerkovius]], [[Max Ackermann]], [[Willi Baumeister]], [[Oskar Schlemmer]], [[Adolf Hölzel]] und [[Alfred Lörcher]] were sources for inspiration. As a consequence she attended the ''Würtembergischen Staatlichen Kunstgewerbeschule'' and learnt all aspects of the applied arts. The creative versatility thus acquired helped her to survive the war years thanks to her appointment as chief designer with a reputed leather manufacturer. Her multi-faceted artistic achievement shows a marked craft influence explained by her career as designer of textiles. After the war, her artistic talent and ambitions got more headroom and the road to recognition was opened.
