Franz Ringer is a German painter, graphic designer and sculptor.
Franz Ringer came from an old Munich family of carpenters. At the age of 20 he traveled to Tyrol and Switzerland, enrolled at the Technical University of Aachen, returned to Munich and worked as an assistant to the sculptor Josef von Kramer (1841-1908) for ten years, which shaped him as a master stylistically and technically.
Ringer was one of the best-known decorative arts artists in Munich at the time, and he artistically designed many restaurants in Bavaria and in Munich. His design projects are extremely varied.
Franz Ringer is also known as the creator of stone and glass beer mugs, which he painted in Art Nouveau, Art Deco or Biedermeier style. The first Ringer mugs to go into production were made by Villeroy & Boch in 1905. These mugs quickly became popular with the public, especially at scheduled conferences and festivals. Ringer worked for many ceramic manufacturers in Germany. In addition to Villeroy & Boch, these included Reinhold Merkelbach, Merkelbach & Wick, Marzi & Remi, Albert Jakob Thewalt and others.

Volker Böhringer was a German painter and graphic artist.
He was a significant representative of the "New Objectivity. In his paintings and graphics Böhringer turned to socially critical representational themes, the theme of his early works being industrial landscapes. Böhringer refused to join the League of German Artists (VBKD), so he was forbidden to exhibit his work. Despite his secluded life, he received critical acclaim, and his work was shown in major public exhibitions of German modern art at the Art Museum Basel in 1937 and in Zurich in 1949. In the 1950s he increasingly turned to religious themes in his paintings.

Thomas Ring was a German astrologer, painter and poet.
Thomas Ring studied in the class of the graphic artist Emil Orlik. He was intensively involved in the emerging expressionism and abstract painting.
As a 'degenerate painter' and (from 1927) a member of the Communist Party, he and his family emigrated to Austria at the end of 1932. In 1943 and 1944 he worked at the Institute of Psychology at the University of Strasbourg during the Second World War. After Strasbourg was liberated from the Nazis by the Allies, both he and his wife were imprisoned in a French prisoner-of-war camp.
After his liberation from the camp, Thomas Ring returned to Austria in 1946. In 1952 he settled in the countryside in the Black Forest, Germany.
He took part in three exhibitions (1961 in Berlin, 1971 and 1973 in Cologne), in which he was presented as a constructivist and a member of Der Strum. In 1974, Dumont Studio Cologne held a solo exhibition with forty-seven of his works.
