Joseph Beuys who played an important role for a long period in Documenta of Kassel was a student of Ewald Matare (1887-1962) at the Art Academy of Dusseldorf. This research is, based on exhibition catalogues in Germany, Matare's diary and careful studies on various leading researches, such as a doctoral dissertation on Matare's art teaching method which have not yet been translated or published in Japan, to clarify Matare's personality and art, his appointment to the President of the Art Academy of Dusseldorf and his reform plan for the Academy and his teaching method, and further, through my own experience at the Art Academy of Dusseldorf, to try to unveil the art teaching method of Matare and his colleagues who contributed a great deal to the development of the Art Academy of Dusseldorf.
