Camille Graeser was a Swiss artist, interior designer, graphic designer and representative of the Zurich school of concrete art.
Camille Graeser developed abstract expressionism around 1920. He later switched to a strict, two-dimensional purism, influenced by his Stuttgart colleagues Oskar Schlemmer and Willi Baumeister. In 1933, because of the rise of the Nazis to power, Greser fled to Zurich. In 1937 he became a member of the Allianz Association of Artists, which publicly promoted the new artistic trends.
Robert Combas is a French painter and sculptor. He lives and works in Paris.
He is widely recognized as a progenitor of the figuration libre movement that began in Paris around 1980 as a reaction to the art establishment in general and minimalism and conceptual art in particular.
Figuration libre is often regarded as having roots in Fauvism and Expressionism and is linked to contemporary movements such as Bad Painting and Neo-expressionism. It draws on pop cultural influences such as graffiti, cartoons and rock music in an attempt to produce a more varied, direct and honest reflection of contemporary society, often satirizing or critiquing its excesses.
