Hans Steinbrenner was a German sculptor.
Steinbrenner's work, whose first sculptures date from the end of the 1940s, was initially still influenced by his teachers. He created classically influenced individual and group figures. By the mid-1950s, Steinbrenner's style had changed and was influenced by his encounters with the sculptors Brâncuși (1876-1957) and Laurens (1895-1954) in Paris. He created abstract, biomorphic figures up to two metres high. In the 1960s he turned to geometric-abstract, rhythmically structured cuboid sculptures. In the last phase of his work (from around the end of the 1960s), Steinbrenner once again changed his stylistic expression to abstract, stele-like figures.

Hans Hofmann, a German-American painter, stands as a towering figure in the 20th-century art world, celebrated for his vibrant contributions to abstract expressionism. Born in Germany in 1880, Hofmann's journey in art took him across continents, from Europe to the United States, where his innovative teaching methods and bold, color-filled canvases left an indelible mark on generations of artists. His unique approach to painting, characterized by a dynamic interplay of color and form, helped bridge the gap between the European modernist traditions and the emerging American abstract art scene.
Hofmann's work is distinguished by its intense color palettes and the technique he termed "push and pull," which refers to the careful balance of color and shape to create depth and movement within the canvas. This technique not only showcased his mastery over the medium but also influenced the development of abstract expressionism, making Hofmann a pivotal figure among his contemporaries. His paintings, such as "The Gate" (1959-60), exemplify this approach and are celebrated in prestigious museums worldwide, including the Museum of Modern Art in New York and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art.
Beyond his personal contributions as an artist, Hofmann was an esteemed educator, guiding the next generation of artists through his schools in New York and Provincetown. His teaching philosophy emphasized the importance of understanding the fundamental elements of art—color, form, and space—and their interrelation, which he believed was key to achieving harmony and expression in painting.
For collectors and experts in art and antiques, Hans Hofmann's works represent not just significant artistic achievements but also valuable pieces of cultural history. His paintings and teachings continue to inspire and influence the art world, making his pieces highly sought after in galleries and auctions.

Hans Bellmer was a German graphic artist, sculptor, photographic artist, illustrator, and writer who spent most of his life in France.
In the 1930s Bellmer began working on the eroticized image of the deformed doll, contrasting it with the aesthetics of the "classical" body in Hitler's Germany. His graphic and literary explorations focus on the dismemberment and liberation of bodies. Bellmer's surrealist works are violent and provocative: they include puppet sculptures composed of the bodies of nude models, photographs, and prints.
In 1934, 18 photographs of dolls were published in the Parisian surrealist magazine Minotaur, and the Nazi regime declared Bellmer's art degenerate. In 1938, Bellmer emigrated to France.
After the end of the war, the artist continued his work, adding poetry to painting. He also authored illustrations for many works, particularly on erotic themes.

![](https://veryimportantlot.com/uploads/art_data/Artist/945/тома.jpg)
Hans Thoma was a German painter.
In spite of his studies under various masters, his art has little in common with modern ideas, and is formed partly by his early impressions of the simple idyllic life of his native district, partly by his sympathy with the early German masters, particularly with Albrecht Altdorfer and Lucas Cranach the Elder. In his love of the details of nature, in his precise drawing of outline, and in his predilection for local coloring, he has distinct affinities with the Pre-Raphaelites.
