Rosa Loy is a German artist, representative of the "New Leipzig School of Painting", living and working in Leipzig.
She was educated at Humboldt University in Berlin and studied at the Academy of Visual Arts in Leipzig. Rosa Loy is one of the few artists in Germany working with a new femininity in the style of New Romanticism. Her characters live in a world of fantasy, dreams and folklore, in colorful surreal and symbolic settings.
Loy boldly combines femininity and beauty in her figurative paintings. Her work also reflects her relationship with her husband Neo Rauch. Together they are internationally known as a successful creative couple. They both have their own independent works, which are nevertheless influenced by each other and can successfully combine the forces of masculinity and femininity.
Rosa Loy works in casein on canvas and paper and is also proficient in a variety of graphic techniques. She has participated in numerous exhibitions of Leipzig artists in international art museums. In addition, her work is included in the collections of major art institutions and organizations such as the Museum of Modern Art, New York, the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, and the Deutsche Bank Collection.
Jan Dörre is a German painter known for his still lifes in the modern vanitas style.
He studied painting at the Academy of Visual Arts in Leipzig, lives and works in Leipzig.
Jan Dörre paints still lifes, which are directly associated with the paintings of the old masters of the 17th century. The artist in his works repeats in different variations the familiar set of motifs found in baroque still lifes of vanitas: bread, cutlery, fruit, insects, birds, snakes, lizards, books, letters, skull, etc. But next to them in a modern setting he places objects of our time, for example, pills and empty packages from them. All this together conveys the general idea of the genre: a reminder of the transience of life, the futility of pleasure and the inevitability of death.

Cornelia Schleime is a German painter, performer, filmmaker and author. She studied painting and graphic arts at the Dresden Academy of Fine Arts before becoming a member of the underground art scene. She was awarded the Hannah Höch Lifetime Achievement Award from the State of Berlin in 2016.
Schleime's painting style is inspired by artists that were a strong influence in her classical studies such as Bacon and Balthus, Monet, Rembrandt, and Van Gogh.
Schleime has focused since the 1990s on figures and large-format portraits. Sources of inspiration are glossy magazines, reproductions of all kinds, but also personal photographs or snapshots found at flea markets. Through the intuitive act of drawing or painting, she turns those she depicts into something creative of her own, projecting them in new roles, symbolically emphasising the poses encountered or highlighting aspects with a touch of fantasy and irony.
