About the Item

Medium: Color Lithograph Year: 1973 Signed by hand, dated and inscribed Size: 19.5 × 17.4 on 25.4 × 19.3 inches COA provided Bernd Berner (born September 24, 1930 in Bergedorf, July 12, 2002 in Stuttgart ) was a German painter and graphic artist. Bernd Berner completed a training as a lithographer. The artistic break caused by National Socialism also prompted young Bernd Berner to search for new artistic expressions and initially turned to the French Cubists, in particular Fernand Léger. When Berner Baumer's 1947 book "The unknown in art" fell into the hands, it was for him a revelation that influenced the young artist significantly. In 1952 he moved to Stuttgart, where he met with Willi Baumeister . His works from this period are entirely abstract and clearly marked by furrows and scriptural structures. Between 1956 and 1958 Baumeister's direct influence as well as the affinity for Tachism and Informel lost more and more importance. The colors in Berner's works were combined into fields of organized pictorial structure. In dealing with non-objective painting of European Modernism in 1959, he defined the concept of "area space" (overwriting and overpainting, which leads to a dense network and thus give the area a certain amount of space) for the majority of his works. He kept this concept throughout his life. From 1960 he exhibited internationally. Solo exhibitions took place mainly in Germany, France, Switzerland and Italy. From 1971 to 1994 he held a professorship for painting at the University of Applied Sciences in Pforzheim . His studios were in Stuttgart and temporarily in Bern and Paris. Together with Klaus Jürgen-Fischer, Eduard Micus, Erwin Bechtold and Rolf-Gunther Dienst, Berner founds the SYN group of artists in 1965, who represent the idea of ??a holistic art beyond the definition of a formalism. The group disbanded in 1970, however.

Untitled #2
Located in San Francisco, CA
This artwork "Untitled #2" is a colors monotype on Arches paper by Dutch artist Frans Horbach. It is hand signed and dated in pencil by the artist. The image (plate mark) is 19.5 x 15.5 inches, sheet size is 30 x 22.25 inches. It is in excellent condition, the colors are fresh and bright, has never been framed. About the artist: Born in Holland, Dutch artist Frans Horbach first visited New York when he was 17 years old, traveling on a cargo ship from Rotterdam, just as his fellow country man Willem de Kooning had done years before. Two years later he left Holland and emigrated to California. During the years that he lived and worked as a professional artist in America, one of the main sources of artistic influence came from artists belonging to what is now known as the New York school of American lyrical abstract expressionist art - Rothko, Pollock, De Kooning... He was attracted by their ideas, style of work, and more importantly, by their vital energy and uninhibited self-confidence. Horbach's work also was influenced, more subtely perhaps, by his contact with indigeneous Indian people during his journeys in the American South-West and Mexico. These encounters were a rich source of inspiration - they became integral to a philosophical framework which involved the appreciation of physical space in a poetic and artistic sense. In later years, as the result of his long-time interest in oriental art and philosophy, some of his work show a distinct affinity with the aesthetic sensibilities of traditional Japanse...
