Michael Fischer-Art, an artist born in Leipzig, takes a socially critical approach to the environment in his art and assigns his work to “market realism”. His pictures are colorful attacks on intellectualism and profundity, while his sculptures are eye-catching eye-catchers that beautify many places in Germany. He also creates pop art-style portraits of celebrities and maintains contacts with representatives from politics, business and show business.
Aris Kalaizis is a German artist of Greek origin. He studied painting at the Leipzig Academy of Fine Arts.
Aris Kalaizis gained international recognition after taking part in the 2010 Venice Biennale (Mostra Internazionale di Architettura) and in the 4th Triennale in Guangzhou, China in 2011.
Calaisis creates his works by assembling elaborate spatial compositions and constructing large-scale scenes on the site of an imaginary action. In the process, he takes a series of preparatory photographs from which the final work is constructed. The scenes in his paintings, which often have a surrealistic impression, are developed from ideas that Kalaisis develops in the manner of a screenplay. The result of this step-by-step creative process are pictorial works that embody desired images of the inner world in line and colour.
