Benedikt Hipp is a German painter and sculptor who lives and works in Munich and Amsterdam.
Hipp studied at the academies of fine arts in Nuremberg, Munich and Bologna. Even during his studies he attracted attention with his characteristic works. His paintings and panels, some of them large format, are created in the technique of the old masters - oil paints on wooden panels and varnished.
For example, one of Hipp's latest works, the series "Ocean Bark" embodies an artistic confrontation with the last unexplored corner of our earth - the depths of the sea. These works are created as a result of a rather complex technological process and create a fantastic impression reminiscent of surrealism. Architecture, animals and people are alienated, united and presented in a disturbing, dreamlike way.
Benedikt Hipp is an extremely versatile artist who expresses himself in several genres. He has works on paper, collages and ink drawings, recently focusing on objects and sculpture as well as spatial installations.
In 2021, Hipp was awarded the Rome Prize Fellowship of the Deutsche Akademie Villa Massimo, Germany's most renowned award for artists.

Ben Nicholson, an English artist, is celebrated for his significant contributions to abstract art. Born into an artistic family, Nicholson's work evolved from figurative art to embrace and lead in the development of abstract art in Britain. His early career was marked by experimentation with Cubism and interaction with influential artists like Barbara Hepworth, Henry Moore, Piet Mondrian, and Pablo Picasso, which profoundly shaped his artistic direction.
Nicholson's art is notable for its sensitive balance of tone and texture, employing dynamic and rhythmic lines that abstractly reference architectural forms and societal structures. His technique involved meticulous carving, painting, and the innovative use of color, especially in his later works where he explored the interplay of light and form to create poetic, abstract landscapes. His contributions were not just confined to his own practice; through collaborative projects and influential writings, he played a pivotal role in the discourse of modernist art, advocating for abstract art's broader appreciation.
Noteworthy pieces of Nicholson's work, including "March 1963 (Archimedes)" and "June 1961 (green goblet and blue square)," among others, are housed in prestigious collections like the Tate Gallery, Tate St Ives, Kettle's Yard Art Gallery in Cambridge, The Hepworth Wakefield, Pallant House Gallery in Chichester, and the Pier Arts Centre in Stromness, Orkney.
Nicholson's legacy as a pioneer of abstract art in the UK is secured through his innovative approaches and influential partnerships, which have left an indelible mark on the landscape of 20th-century art. His work continues to inspire and resonate, reflecting a deep understanding of the abstract's power to express the complexities of human experience and the natural world.
