Dietmar Lemcke
Dietmar Lemcke was a German painter, graphic artist and professor at Berlin University of the Arts and member of the Deutscher Künstlerbund.
Dietmar Lemcke studied with Karl Schmidt-Rotluff and Karl Hofer at the Berlin Academy of Fine Arts from 1948 to 1954. Immediately after completing his studies he received a one-year scholarship to the Académie de Montmartre in Paris, whose director at the time was Fernand Léger.
The master mainly worked in genres such as landscape and still life. He never sought to dissolve representation, but preferred colour to form. Expressionism had a great influence on Dietmar Lemke's work.
