Gerd Baukhage

Gerd Baukhage is a German abstractionist painter.

He studied at the Dusseldorf Academy of Art and painted realistic landscapes. Participation in World War II and Soviet captivity strongly influenced the artist's outlook and he moved on to abstract expressive works.

Human suffering and misery in the form of "blockages" and "obstacles" were the theme of Bauckhage's work in the later years of his life. One of his famous creations on the theme of violence and mass murder is the series Execution Machines.
