Alexander Ernst Voigt was a German painter.
Voigt studied at the Düsseldorf Art Academy, and as a student he participated in exhibitions. The complex ornaments of his paintings are based on floral or landscape, i.e. natural motifs, but it is the line that is the real subject. The result is paintings that are as mesmerizing as they are decorative, inviting the viewer to an almost meditative contemplation.
The abstraction in Voigt's paintings ranges from stark to more naturalistic and takes many forms. It can occupy the entire surface, and then it is a wall composed of a forest of white lines or other geometric shapes. Or it can be part of an image: a palm tree that turns out to be just a few lines, or a staircase that turns out to be simple blocks of color. The absence of human figures allows the figurative elements to merge with the abstractions.

Karl Fred Dahmen is a German artist, one of the most important representatives of German post-war art and the Informel movement. In 1967 he took up the post of Professor of Fine Arts at the Munich Academy.
He painted expressive abstract pictures with a tectonic structure, and since the mid-1950s, relief paintings and collages on the damage to the local landscape caused by open-pit mining. Later in Dahmen's oeuvre, glazed object boxes appear, recounting the impressions of his daily working life.
