For the last three decades of his life he lived and worked in Altlangsow (administratively part of Seelow) in the marshy Oderbruch region of Brandenburg. ==Life== After a training as a Ceramics modeller at the Vocational Arts Academy in Sonneberg,〔 Stötzer moved on to study between 1949 and 1951 at the Grand Ducal Arts Academy in Weimar, where his teachers included Heinrich Domke, Hans van Breek and Siegfried Tschiersky. Because of a reorganisation at the Weimar academy he then transferred to Dresden where he continued his studies at the city's Academy of Fine Arts from 1951 till 1953, taught by Eugen Hoffmann and Walter Arnold. Between 1954 and 1958 her was a "Master Schoolman" (''Meisterschüler'') with Gustav Seitz at the Berlin Academy of Arts〔 where contemporaries included Manfred Böttcher, Harald Metzkes and the painter Ernst Schroeder. He formed lifelong friendships with the first two of these three. On concluding of his time as a Master Schoolman he embarked on a career as a freelance artist. In 1974 he worked with Konrad Wolf on the tragicomedy film The Naked Man on the Sports Ground (''"Der nackte Mann auf dem Sportplatz"''), himself taking a small cameo role as the town mayor. Werner Stötzer also worked as a teacher. From 1975 till 1978 he was a guest lecturer at the Berlin-Weißensee High Arts Academy, and between 1987 and 1990 he held a teaching professorship at the East German Arts Academy. From 1978 he was employed at the Berlin Arts Academy where he served as Vice-president from 1990-1993.〔 and where he personally mentored a number of younger artists. His own "Master Schoolmen" from this period included Horst Engelhardt, Berndt Wilde, Joachim Böttcher (1989-1992) and Mark Lammert. After living in a succession of apartments and ateliers in Berlin and Vilmitz (Putbus) on the Island of Rügen, he relocated to Altlangsow, some 70 km (45 miles) to the east of Berlin and (since 1945) some 20 km (12 miles) to the west of the frontier with Poland. Here, for almost thirty years, he worked, living in a former presbytery with his wife, the sculptress Sylvia Hagen.〔 * "What lies within me is neither Heaven nor Hell.
