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.
