Werner Berges is a contemporary German artist and graphic artist, a representative of Pop Art.
Typical of him are bright colours and sharp outlines, the use of spot painting and the strips that give his works the character of reproductions. The heroes of his paintings are pop and film stars, advertising types of women and photo-models, whose erotic poses and captivating glances Werner Berges emphasizes with a powerful combination of colours, points, stripes and collage. At the core of his drawing is a "graphic framework" that exists independently of the overlay of colours on the canvas. The artist tries to show himself to be completely independent and impartial about what he has created and only signs his work on the back of the canvas.
