Gerhard Merz
Gerhard Merz is a German artist. From 1969 to 1973 he studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich. Between 1964 and 1969 expressive pictures were taken and subsequently first metal sculptures. Since the beginning of the 1970s, he has been increasingly working with room installations in which he manufactured references to literary and art history as well as political history, as well as with the development of large-format, monochrome, with lineset nets from pencils covered. At the beginning of 1977, he was represented with his works four times in a row at Documenta in Kassel.
