In 1914, Adler was taken as a prisoner of war with other Austrian painters and spent the entire First World War in Siberia. He later participated in exhibitions with other Austrian and Russian painters while also holding exhibits in Vienna, Dresden, and Brunn. He received an appointment to Professorship at the Royal Academy in Vienna, which he held for several years before his death.
