Early life and education[edit]

At age 18, Kadow entered the Staatliches Bauhaus in Weimar as an apprentice. She studied under tapestry artist Irma Goecke.[2]

In 1940, Elisabeth married textile artist, painter, and graphic artist Gerhard Kadow. She became a teacher at the Higher Technical School of the Textile Industry Escuela (from 1944 known as the Textile Engineering School) in Krefeld, first teaching classes on fashion, and later leading classes on artistic print design.[2][4] When Georg Muche retired from education in 1958, Elisabeth Kadow took charge of the master class for textile art and elevated its reputation to the international level.[1][3] Elisabeth Kadow led the school's design department until 1971.[2]
When she left the Textile Engineering School in 1971, se dedicó más al trabajo de diseño. El arte textil marcó toda su vida. Hizo bordados artísticos y, en cooperación con Gobelin-Manufaktur Nuremberg y junto con el tejedor Johann Peter Heek, produjo tapices y tapices artísticos.[1][3][5] Elisabeth Kadow y la tejedora Hildegard von Portatius diseñaron y crearon juntas creativas colgaduras de seda y trabajos textiles similares. Supo combinar de manera óptima las más diversas técnicas de producción y arte textil y utilizar la libertad creativa entre la regla y el desorden de manera abstracta y concreta. Las acuarelas, pero también ciertos tipos de sombreado, así como las formaciones de cuadrículas y capas, los tonos de color armoniosos, las mezclas de colores inteligentemente elegidas y las proporciones claras sirvieron de inspiración para sus diseños.[1][3]
