Claude Wall
Claude Wall is a German artist who was born in 1951 in Eschweiler, a town in the Rhineland region of Germany. He studied painting at the Stuttgart Art Academy from 1969 to 1974, under the guidance of Professor Paul Uwe Dreyer.
Between 1980 and 1994, Wall lived and worked between Milan and Stuttgart. During his career, he has been awarded several prizes, scholarships and awards, including the Förderpreis für farbige Plastik of the Kulturkreis im BDI in 1984, the Second Ateliers Internationaux des Pays de Loire, and the artist-in-residence at the University of Missouri, St. Louis. He was also the recipient of the scholarship of the state of Baden-Württemberg and was an Artiste-en-atelier au F.r.A.C. Bourgogne, Dijon.
Wall is known for his colorful and abstract sculptures, often made of metal, that explore the relationship between form and space. His work has been exhibited widely both nationally and internationally, including at the Venice Biennale and Documenta in Kassel.
