Gustav Kluge was a German painter and graphic artist and professor of painting.
Kluge studied painting at the Hamburg University of Fine Arts and later taught painting at the State Academy of Fine Arts in Karlsruhe. The artist works and lives in Hamburg and Karlsruhe.
In his works, Kluge deals with fundamental themes: life and death, power and violence. In addition to original inventions, he takes into account various suggestions of historical, cultural and religious traditions. His paintings and drawings, especially his woodcuts, are prime examples of Neo-Expressionism. Using rich material, layered colorful applications, Kluge paints his paintings, as he himself puts it, "on top of each other."
Ernst Rudolf Baerwind was a German painter. Baerwind studied at the art academies in Munich, Berlin and Paris. Baerwind's work was initially based on early German Expressionism. After a surrealist phase, he was influenced in Paris by the painting of the École de Paris and by Informel and then found his way to the International Style.
Max Uhlig is a German painter. He won the Hans Theo Richter-Preis of the Sächsische Akademie der Künste in 1998.
In 1978, Max Uhlig presented his characteristic paintings for the first time in the Dresden Kupferstichkabinett.
"Black and white or in colour, lines in the expressive rhythm of their superimposition draw the image mode and the conciseness of an extensive, unmistakable work that is a discovery. Today Max Uhlig is one of the last representatives of the era of open-air painting in modern art that began 150 years ago, but his work elevates it to the height of our time." His late work received significant impulses from annual stays in Faucon (southern France) from 1991 to 2010.
Max Uhlig has been a member of the German Association of Artists since 1990 and a founding member of the Saxon Academy of the Arts. From 1995 to 2002, he was the professor for painting and graphics at the University of Fine Arts in Dresden.
