Marino Marini was an Italian sculptor and educator.
Tancredi Parmeggiani, or simply Tancredi, was an Italian painter.
He studied painting at the Academy of Fine Arts in Venice. Along with Mario Deluigi and Lucio Fontana, Tancredi Parmeggiani is considered one of the most important representatives of Spazialismo ("Spatial Movement"). This concept of art was developed by Fontana, in which he saw a new spatial concept of technology and science as the basis of modern art. Tancredi Parmeggiani was also convinced that the surface of the image should cross the boundaries of two-dimensionality to open new dimensions through color and time and find new artistic solutions.
The famous collector Peggy Guggenheim was his patron and promoted his lyrical-abstract works to major American museums. Tancredi's work was critically acclaimed, he actively participated in many exhibitions in Italy, London, Paris and New York, and was the recipient of several prestigious awards. In 1964 he took part in the Venice Biennale, and in September of the same year, at the age of 37, he took his own life in Rome.

Norbert Prangenberg was an abstract painter, sculptor, and engraver. Though he had no formal training and did not fully engage with art until his 30s, Prangenberg did finally come up with a style that was uniquely his own, not fitting comfortably into the neo-expressionist or neo-geo movements of his time, in the 1970s and 1980s. At this time, he was considered a major figure in contemporary German art. Though he got his start with abstract paintings, he also became known for making sculptures of all sizes; and while his work initially appears abstract, the titles given sometimes allude to the human body or a landscape. As a trained gold- and silversmith, as well as a glassblower, he always showed an attention to materials and how they could be physically engaged with. He was interested in how his own two hands could affect the painting or sculpture's surface. Traces of the artist's hand appear literally throughout his entire oeuvre, before he lost the battle with liver cancer in 2012.
