Born in Essen, Germany in 1935, Albert Seidl trained as an artist in his native city at the Graphic Vocational School and Folkwang Academy of Fine Arts
Seidl's work hangs regularly at the Ice Cream, Etc. Parlor, Jazz'd Tapas Bar, and the famous A.T. Hun Gallery in Savannah's City Market, where his paintings featuring musicians and marine scenes are one of the hottest collected works in the international market. In addition, he has had solo exhibitions in over 22 countries worldwide, including Nicaragua, Aruba, Austria and Canada.
Seidl's paintings evoke an emotional response in the viewer that says, "Take a break and remember this moment." Many find his work to be extraordinarily personal and beautifully intimate, with Savannah, Georgia, being a frequent setting for his canvases. No matter where one is from, Seidl's realism, yet impressionism, captures not only the eye, but also the soul in its simplicity and craft.
The quintessential Renaissance man, Albert is equally adept as a boat builder and designer, sculptor, furniture designer, writer and cabinetmaker.
