Erich Mönch (July 10, 1905 in Rötenbach bei Calw-26 May 1977 in Unterjesingen bei Tübingen) taught for 20 years at the State Academy of Fine Arts Stuttgart, was an important figure of Tübingen art scene after the Second World War, and after his retirement, he was an honorary member of the State Academy of Fine Arts Stuttgart. He received the Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany in 1970 at retirement for his contribution to the development of lithography.

This group attached in 1926 to the newly founded Bund der Sturmtrupp-Pfadfinder, of the Deutsche Waldritterschaft. Graphic artist Helmut Hövetborn was the Bundesfeldmeister. There was no written Scout bylaws, but the members had to know the key statements of the Federation. In 1927 they acquired the Bund bei Döffingen (Kreis Böblingen) a large heath area on a mountain. Here, in the "Land of Youth", the national office was in the blockhouse style. Mönch was national Hauptfeldmeister Chief Scout.

[1] After the Bundesthing (general assembly) in Roßlau the name was changed in "Sturmtrupp-Pfadfinder, eine deutsche Waldritterschaft". Helmut Hövetborn and Erich Mönch became Chief Scouts.

The State Academy of Fine Arts Stuttgart is a university in Stuttgart, Germany. Founded on June 25, 1761, and located since 1946 on the Weißenhof, the Academy, whose historical significance marks names such as Nicolas Guibal, Bernhard Pankok, Adolf Hölzel, Willi Baumeister, Herbert Hirche, K.R.H. Sonderborg, Alfred Hrdlicka, Marianne Eigenheer, Joseph Kosuth, Joan Jonas, Micha Ullman, offers from all art universities in the federal state Baden-Württemberg the largest numbers of courses, namely all disciplines of the visual field, and not just in an organizational network but also under one roof. This is essentially the result of the connection of the former Academy of Fine Arts with the former School of Applied Arts in 1941 as Staatliche Akademie der bildenden Künste Stuttgart, which was reconstituted by Theodor Heuss in 1946 under the same name and which aimed at a broad training program as well as an intensified development in the following decades. Under the rectorate of Wolfgang Kermer, on February 22, 1975, the ″Gesetz über die Kunsthochschulen im Lande Baden-Württemberg (Kunsthochschulgesetz)″ passed by the Landtag of Baden-Württemberg came into force, which for the first time in the history of the State Academy of Fine Arts Stuttgart regulated the status and the essential relationships and which guaranteed the equality of rank with universities.

"Human speech seems to have been encoded, sealed into formulaic structures, and pressed into service for mechanistic operations", he once wrote.
Wolfgang Kermer is a German art historian, artist, art educator, author, editor, curator of exhibitions and professor.

Under his rectorate, the State Academy of Fine Arts Stuttgart was reformed in 1975 and 1978 on the base of two new university laws of the State of Baden-Württemberg and thus, for the first time in its history, authorized to set up diplomas for all courses.
