== Life ==
Karl Hurm was born in 1930 as the seventh of eight children. He began painting as a child, depicting the surroundings of his home village Weildorf, as he himself puts it: "painting has always been a part of my daily life".〔''Gespräch mit Karl Hurm''. In: Alexandra Cyrkel (Hrsg.): ''Karl Hurm zum 60.Geburtstag''. Probst, Villingen-Schwenningen 1990, S. 86.〕 After finishing school in 1946, he became an apprentice in house painter and decorator. Along the way, he gathered information about regional painters, visited the artist Friedrich Schüz (1874–1954) and heard about a group of young artists who worked in the Bernstein Monastery. After Hurm had taken over his parents' fruit- and vegetable retail store in Weildorf in 1949, he used his weekly shopping trips to the wholesalers' market in Stuttgart to visit the museums there and study the masterpieces of painters like Pablo Picasso and Paul Klee, Henri Rousseau and Paul Gauguin, Marc Chagall and Jean Tinguely, whom he later named as sources of inspiration for his own motifs and painting technique. In 1955, Karl Hurm married Anni Huber, they have four children, one of them is Gerd Hurm, a professor for American studies. Hurm continued working as a greengrocer and kept on painting in his leisure time.
When in 1970 Karl Hurm became seriously ill, he had to give up working in the greengrocery business and from then on concentrated on painting only. In 1972, his painting titled "Frau beim Fernsehen" (transl.: woman watching television) won first prize at the "Sunday-painter's competition" for amateur artists of the Eisenmann Company, in Böblingen. Later that same year, Hurm's first individual exhibition was shown at the gallery "die schwarze Treppe", in Haigerloch. Since that time, Karl Hurm's paintings have been displayed in more than 200 individual and collective exhibitions in Europe, the United States, as well as in Japan. Hurm currently lives and paints in Haigerloch-Weildorf.
