    Georg Curt Bauch was born in Meissen, Germany in 1887. He was the son of Wilhelm Bauch, a porcelain painter in Meissen. Georg first studied at the School of Applied Arts in Dresden, Germany, as a student of Hugo Spieler. He later attended the Academy as a student of Robert Diez.

In 1917, Georg built his own studio with an ore foundry as well, in Dresden-Loschwitz. He participated in the Große Berliner Kunstausstellung in 1925. Georg Bauch's consistent antifascist stance led to problems which caused him to flee to Brione sopra Minusio in 1944. Besides busts, Georg Bauch also created animal sculptures and plaques, as well as fine figural compositions. His work can be admired at the Municipal Museum in Bautzen, the Albertina in Dresden, as well as in Zurich (Secretariat of the President). Georg Curt Bauch died in 1967.
