Andreas Brandt
Andreas Brandt is a contemporary German artist. He developed his own rigorous and daring vision of freedom early on, which is embodied in his parsimonious mathematical compositions.
Andreas Brandt is most closely associated with Swiss artists of concrete art, in particular Max Bill and Camilla Greser.
In his work, Brandt aimed to present colour "as an autonomous form" and show the "tension it creates with other autonomous forms in a rectangular area".
