Beate Kuhn is a German ceramic sculptor.
She had an unprecedented influence on the development of German ceramics after the war, when in the mid-1960s she abandoned utilitarian ceramics in favor of free art.
After graduating from the Werkkunstschule in Wiesbaden, she founded her own workshop in Düdelsheim in 1957, developing a style that was already unmistakably her own. Here Beate Kuhn's sculptures were created from individual hand-carved and chiseled elements, which she assembled into a coherent whole. She transferred this stylistic principle of stringing geometric bodies to her designs of large-scale ceramic fountains. The artist's characteristic work can be found in every outstanding collection. The enormous number of prizes awarded to her underscores the recognition and appreciation she has enjoyed.
Klára Herczeg, also known as Claire Weiss, was a Hungarian sculptor. She established the Klára Herczeg Prize, awarded annually by the Young Artists Foundation. Her works have been exhibited since 1925, including at the 1937 Paris World Exhibition and the 1939 New York World's Fair. Approximately 30 of her sculptures are housed in Budapest and other Hungarian museums, while her works are also displayed internationally, such as at the Albrecht-Dürer-Haus in Nuremberg.
Interestingly, Herczeg´s porcelain and ceramic figures created between 1930 and 1940 were never showcased or acknowledged in exhibitions, but they periodically appear in art auctions and antique markets. It is documented that she designed over 200 figures.
