Hans Hartung - The kite pictures
Artist Biography: Hans Hartung (Leipzig, 1904 - Antibes, 1989) was a French naturalized German painter, noted for his abstract works with black calligraphic strokes on vibrant colored backgrounds. Born into a family of scientists and artists, he studied philosophy, art history and fine arts in Leipzig and Dresden. From the beginning, he distanced himself from the Bauhaus movement, opting for a free abstract expression that transcended reality. His rapid and energetic brushwork, which he defined as a "spiritual necessity", became his trademark. Hartung received important awards, such as the Guggenheim (1956) and the Grand Prize at the Venice Biennale (1960), establishing himself as a benchmark of abstract art.
