figurative art
Josef Lorenzl was an Austrian sculptor and ceramicist of the Art Deco period, the same era as Ferdinand Preiss (1882–1943) and Demetre Chiparus (1886–1947).
Martin Kippenberger was a German artist known for his extremely prolific output in a wide range of styles and media, superfiction as well as his provocative, jocular and hard-drinking public persona.
Kippenberger was "widely regarded as one of the most talented German artists of his generation," according to Roberta Smith of the New York Times. He was at the center of a generation of German enfants terribles including Albert Oehlen, Markus Oehlen, Werner Büttner, Georg Herold, Dieter Göls, and Günther Förg.
Ferdinand Liebermann was a German sculptor.
Liebermann studied sculpture at the School of Arts and Crafts and at the Academy in Munich with Heinrich Wadere. After additional studies in Rome and Paris, he opened his studio in Munich in 1910 and was awarded the Grand Austrian State Medal in gold for a small bronze the same year. In 1926 he became professor of monumental and portrait sculpture in Munich.
Ferdinand Liebermann's works include numerous sculptures of buildings, monuments and fountains, and he was also one of the most important figure designers for the Rosenthal manufactory.
