artwork by Michael Burges

Born in Germany in the mid-fifties, Michael Burges paints two-dimensional landscapes where the horizontal and the vertical seem to meet and bleed onto each other. Not miles away from some paintings by another German painter, Gerhard Richter, Burges's works are sometimes reminiscent of a birdview snapshot of the swell on its way to the shore - except in a sea of motley colours.

artwork by Pat Rosenmeier

Born in Germany in 1981 but having spent most of her life in North America, Pat Rosenmeier gets inspiration from flowers, namely magnolias, and experiments with colours and contrast in order to offer different perspectives on a single subject. More information there.

artwork by Juan Saló

Juan Saló's bio (which can be found there) informs us that he is a young Spanish artist - real name Juan Saló Armengol - who shares his time between Barcelona and Berlin.
When he is not busy carving clay, wood or more unusual materials such as masking tape, he uses pen on canvas to painstakingly draw original and complex colour patterns.

artwork by Philipp Haager

Here are a few abstract works by German artist Philipp Haager (more information available there).
His dimly-lit paintings seem to reveal overcast skies and watery landscapes, at times ominous, at others glowing with hope.
Picture these on your wall in their actual sizes (some are over 2m long) and try not to be in awe…
