Gotthard Graubner was a German abstract painter associated with the post-war Zero and Informel movements. Graubner's work is known for its focus on color and its relationship to space and perception.
Graubner studied at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf under the painter Georg Meistermann. In the 1950s, he became associated with the Zero group, a movement of artists who sought to create a new art form that was free of traditional artistic conventions and focused on the use of unconventional materials.
In the 1960s, Graubner began creating his signature "color-space bodies," large canvases that were mounted away from the wall and filled with thick layers of pigment. These works were designed to be experienced as three-dimensional objects that were both paintings and sculptures, and they often created a sense of depth and spatial ambiguity.
Graubner's work was exhibited widely in Europe and the United States, and he was the recipient of numerous awards and honors throughout his career. He also taught at several art schools, including the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf and the Städelschule in Frankfurt.
Graubner's innovative approach to painting and his exploration of the relationship between color, space, and perception continue to be an important influence on contemporary art.
Imi Knoebel (born Klaus Wolf Knoebel) is a German artist. Knoebel is known for his minimalist, abstract painting and sculpture.

Sol LeWitt was an American artist linked to various movements, including conceptual art and minimalism.
LeWitt came to fame in the late 1960s with his wall drawings and «structures» (a term he preferred instead of «sculptures») but was prolific in a wide range of media including drawing, printmaking, photography, painting, installation, and artist's books.
Pierre Soulages was a French painter, printmaker, and sculptor. In 2014, François Hollande described him as "the world's greatest living artist."
Soulages is known as "the painter of black," owing to his interest in the colour "both as a colour and a non-colour. When light is reflected on black, it transforms and transmutes it. It opens a mental field all its own." He saw light as a work material; striations of the black surface of his paintings enable him to reflect light, allowing the black to come out of darkness and into brightness, thus becoming a luminous colour.
Keith Allen Haring was an iconic American artist, recognized globally for his distinctive contributions to painting, sculpture, and art culture. Haring's work is celebrated for its vibrant, dynamic imagery and its profound social activism, which addressed critical themes such as AIDS awareness, racial inequality, and the empowerment of communities through art. His art transcends conventional galleries, marking its presence in public spaces, museums, and collections worldwide, thereby democratizing art access and engagement.
Haring's unique approach to art was characterized by bold lines, vivid colors, and animated figures, which not only attracted art collectors and experts but also resonated with a broader audience. His ability to blend art with activism, using public spaces as his canvas, was revolutionary. Works like the "Crack is Wack" mural and the untitled piece on the Berlin Wall stand testament to his commitment to societal issues, making him a pioneer in using art as a tool for social change.
Keith Haring's legacy continues through the Keith Haring Foundation, established by the artist in 1989 to support children's programs and organizations dedicated to raising AIDS awareness. The Foundation ensures that Haring's artistic and philanthropic vision persists, facilitating exhibitions and educational initiatives. For collectors and art experts keen on exploring Haring's influential body of work and its impact on contemporary art and culture, his creations offer profound insights into the intersection of art, social activism, and community engagement.

Werner Berges is a contemporary German artist and graphic artist, a representative of Pop Art.
Typical of him are bright colours and sharp outlines, the use of spot painting and the strips that give his works the character of reproductions. The heroes of his paintings are pop and film stars, advertising types of women and photo-models, whose erotic poses and captivating glances Werner Berges emphasizes with a powerful combination of colours, points, stripes and collage. At the core of his drawing is a "graphic framework" that exists independently of the overlay of colours on the canvas. The artist tries to show himself to be completely independent and impartial about what he has created and only signs his work on the back of the canvas.
