At a time when many American artists were heavily influenced by European abstraction, Nordhausen was one of a handful of painters whose work from the mid-twentieth century reflects a deliberate choice to follow the "realist" tradition. Nordhausen was born in New Jersey in 1901, and was first and foremost a figure painter. He painted from the model and especially favored nudes. "Nothing is more beautiful that a woman's body. If you can paint a nude, you can paint anything." In 1930 Nordhausen had a major one-man exhibition at the High Museaum of Art in Atlanta, which included more than fifty of his paintings, watercolors, drawings and prints. In 1978 he married Ethel Chandler WIlliams, a member of the Columbus Museaum's board of directors. Nordhausen maintained his studio in New York for many years but finally established a studio in Columbus, GA in 1960. He died in 1993 and is buried beside his wife in Columbus, GA.
