Testimonials
"Dr. Gaertner was a man whose warm generosity of spirit takes us back to a time when such gentle wisdom and cultivated taste were a cherished value, not so in our computerized age. I have never had a more beloved teacher and 'shall not look upon his like again'." Kenneth Wapnick
"Years ahead of his time, Gaertner was a great influence on my life as he taught me much about humanity as well as culture. Studying Latin under him for three years, I enjoyed every moment of his teaching." Jeff Ruthizer, specializing in the field of Labor Law.
​
Yale University art historian, Jules Prown, who was greatly inspired by his work, described Gaertner as "an inspirational, but idiosyncratic undergraduate teacher."
"Johannes Gaertner draws in a vibrant and playful style of art that is both childlike and carefree, but in his masterful, whimsical way, he demonstrates a wickedly wise observation of human nature, adding an occasional ounce of ouch!" Tahawus Cultural Center, Au Sable Forks, NY
​
“…one of a dying breed: the European émigré humanist in whom vocation and avocation, learning for a living and living for learning ran in perfect parallel harmony.” Susanna Gaertner
