==Life and art==
During the 1920s Fassbender was trained in painting by [[Richard Seewald]] at the [[Kölner Werkschulen]]. Since 1928, he ran his own studio in [[Cologne]].<ref>Gabriele Saure, "Faßbender, Joseph," ''AKL'', Volume 37 (Munich and Leipzig: K.G. Saur, 2003), p. 168.</ref> As an artist, he primarily produced [[abstract painting]]s.
 
During the Second World War he was obliged to work as a Wehrmacht cartographer.
 
Since 1946 he ran a studio at [[Bornheim (Rheinland)|Bornheim]] near Bonn. In 1947 Fassbender founded at Schloss [[Alfter]] near Bornheim, together with [[Hann Trier]], [[Hubert Berke]] and some other artists and men of letters, the "Donnerstagsgesellschaft" in order to revive, and promote, modern painting in the [[Rhineland]].
 
In 1951 he organized an exhibition for his friend, [[Max Ernst]]. In 1955, 1959 and 1964, Fassbender participated at the [[documenta]]s I-III in [[Kassel]].
 
In 1958 the artist was appointed professor of painting and drawing at the [[Kunstakademie Düsseldorf]], where he retired in 1968.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.kunstakademie-duesseldorf.de/galerie/ausstellungen/joseph-fassbender.html|title=Joseph Fassbender}}</ref>
