Fred Thieler was a German abstract artist known for his colorful, gestural paintings. He was born in Königsberg, Germany, and studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Königsberg before moving to Berlin in 1945.
Thieler's early work was influenced by the Expressionist and Surrealist movements, but he soon developed his own unique style characterized by bold colors and dynamic brushstrokes. He often used a palette knife to apply paint to the canvas, creating thick, impasto layers that added depth and texture to his works.
Throughout his career, Thieler participated in numerous exhibitions in Germany and internationally, including the Venice Biennale and Documenta in Kassel. He was also a member of the influential German art group "Quadriga," which included artists such as Bernard Schultze, Karl Otto Götz, and Otto Greis.
In addition to painting, Thieler also worked as a graphic designer and a teacher. He was a professor at the Academy of Fine Arts in Berlin from 1965 to 1981, where he had a significant impact on the next generation of German artists.
Thieler's work can be found in many private collections and museums, including the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam, and the Museum Ludwig in Cologne.

The artist is also known for his intricate dioramas and large scale polyptychs that draw from his talents across a range of media.

Franz Hitzler is a German painter, graphic artist and sculptor, one of the artists of the Spur movement, living and working in Munich.
He studied painting at the art school in Augsburg and at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich, and founded his own studio in Asbach-Beumenheim in 1963. Hitzler's work is not cheerful, despite all its colorfulness. Color overtakes the viewer in menacing flashes. Figurative elements depict grimaces or monsters, often combined with forms of classical Christian iconography such as the crucifixion.
Hitzler is one of Germany's strongest and most important artists, with major museum exhibitions in Germany and the United States and book-catalogues from renowned art publishers. His work is widely represented in many public and private collections, especially in graphic arts museums.
Stefan Müller is a German abstraction artist who works in Germany.
The process of this artist's work is interesting: sometimes Müller bleaches or paints canvases with batik methods or wipes the floor of the studio with them, so that not only the obligatory traces of paint, but also ashes, dust, dirt, beer and other liquids get on the paintings.

Bernhard Heisig was a German painter of the postwar Leipzig school and one of the greatest artists of the GDR.
From 1942 to 1945 he participated in World War II as a volunteer in the 12th SS Armored Division "Hitler Youth", was seriously wounded, was in a Soviet prison camp and was released in Breslau as an invalid.
All these difficult events were reflected in Heisig's work. His unrelenting preoccupation with war made his work as manic as it was monolithic. Anger was what kept him working.
