Biography

In 2004, Schaesberg earned his Ph.D. (summa cum laude) at Munich’s Institute of Art History, Ludwig Maximilian University. He taught at the Institute of Art History at Munich University, however he was never officially employed. At the time of his death, Schaesberg was an adjunct professor in the Art History department at Columbia University. Schaesberg’s book, Das Aufgehobene Bild, discussed collage as a mode of painting — from Pablo Picasso to Richard Prince.

On September 22, 2008, Schaesberg was found dead in the courtyard of his Morningside Heights, Manhattan apartment. According to the medical examiner's office, Schaesberg committed suicide by jumping out of the window of his 8th floor apartment.
