GEORG KARL PFAHLER (1926 – 2002) German painter, printmaker and sculptor, and one of the leading proponents of post-war art in Germany. Rising to prominence in the early 1960s as one of the first hard edge painters in Europe, known for his vibrant and colorful works, Georg Karl Pfahler was an internationally recognized artist who represented Germany at the Venice Biennale in 1970 alongside Günther Uecker, Heinz Mack, and Thomas Lenk; and at the São Paulo Biennale in 1981. Influenced by the tradition of European art informel, he quickly simplified his paintings to adopt an innovative abstract geometric painting style, with block-like forms on crisp backgrounds—styles that his American contemporaries like Frank Stella, Ellsworth Kelly, Kenneth Noland, and Leon Polk Smith, among others, explored as well.

Georg Karl Pfahler
Georg Karl Pfahler (1926–2002) was a pioneering German artist renowned for his contributions to Hard-Edge painting and Color Field movements. Born in Emetzheim, Germany, he studied under Willi Baumeister at the State Academy of Fine Arts Stuttgart, graduating in 1954. Initially influenced by Art Informel, Pfahler's work evolved in the early 1960s towards sharply defined geometric forms and vibrant color contrasts, establishing him as a leading figure in European abstract art. His dedication to exploring the interplay between color, shape, and space distinguished his artistic approach.
Pfahler's international acclaim includes representing Germany at the 35th Venice Biennale in 1970 alongside artists like Günther Uecker and Heinz Mack, and participating in the 16th São Paulo Biennial in 1981. His works have been exhibited globally, with notable retrospectives such as "Color and Space" at QG Gallery in Brussels in 2019. Beyond painting, Pfahler contributed to architectural projects, integrating art into public spaces in post-war Germany. He also held teaching positions, including a tenure at the Academy of Fine Arts Nuremberg from 1984 to 1992, influencing a new generation of artists.

"Night Views" Silkscreen Print by The Skyscape Artist, 25/100
Located in Soquel, CA
"Night Views" Silkscreen Print by The Skyscape Artist, 25/100.
By Tetsuro Sawada ( Japanese, 1933-1998)
This raven black geometric abstraction focuses on hard-edged horizontal lines, color, and light, giving the impression of dusk through the "bokashi," or shading, technique, which is most difficult in the silkscreen medium, a good example of Sawada's theme of the infinite beyond, the silent emptiness of the universe. Signature in the bottom right corner reads, "T. Sawada '87," titled in the bottom center, "Night Views," and numbered, "25/100," in the bottom left corner. Presented in a new white mat. Paper size: 34"H x 22"W, Mat size: 39"H x 27"W
Born in Hokkaido, Tetsuro Sawada (1933-1998, Japanese) graduated from Musashimo Art University where he majored in Western painting. In 1960, he began painting abstract oils...
