Christoph Voll (27th April 1897 in Munich); † (16th June 1939 in Karlsruhe) was a German sculptor and graphic artist associated with Expressionism. He was a member of the politically active avant-garde group of Dresden artists known as the Dresdner Sezession. == Beginnings == Christoph Voll was born in Munich in April 1897, as the son of sculptor Roman Voll and painter Augusta Felicitas. His father died shortly after his son’s birth, and his mother decided to leave him and his sisters for extended periods in orphanages run by nuns. A childhood characterised by the stern and cold authority of the sisters, and a distant mother figure, impacted Voll profoundly. This is evident in his early works in particular, which see the nun and orphan as recurring themes. His childhood also seems to have prompted a degree of social indignation. Certainly Voll felt closely affiliated with ‘ordinary’ people, and often made them models for his work. According to Voll himself, he already began expressing himself artistically in the orphanages, where he would make drawings and even small sculptures of dried bread. In 1911, Voll’s mother moved from Munich to Dresden after having remarried. Here Voll gained apprenticeship with the sculptor Albert Starke, from whom he learned the basic techniques of sculpting. In 1915, he joined the army and spent four years fighting in WW1 (including at the French and Russian fronts). He was awarded the Iron Cross (2nd degree) and subsequently produced a few works with war themes (e.g. ''Soldat mit verwundetem Kameraden'' from 1927–28). Voll never spoke publicly about his war experiences, but remained an ardent pacifist for the rest of his life.
