IN THE SPIRIT OF THE BAUHAUS: Blue, Yellow, Red, Black and White

1926 / 2026

One hundred years after the Bauhaus moved from Weimar to Dessau in 1926 and the opening of the famous Gropius-designed building, we still inherit its ideals and aesthetic, which intertwined with burgeoning industry, increasingly merging art, design, and industrial production.

For Art Karlsruhe 2026, Galerie Wagner pays tribute to this cultural legacy with works from the studios of four contemporary artists who question and reinterpret Bauhaus principles.

Guy de LUSSIGNY

Towards a Specific Conception of Perfection

Guy de Lussigny's painting is austere and precise. For him, the square is "the most stable form invented by the human mind," and the line is "the convenient concept of mathematical thought." Based on these elements, he created an extremely refined visual language that strives towards a specific conception of perfection.

Gerhard HOTTER

Mathematics as a Basis
With the Langford series, Gerhard Hotter found a mathematical basis for his work that was previously unknown in Concrete Art. This opened up an almost limitless scope for the systematic creation of a multitude of color and form compositions in different series of works.

Giovanna STRADA

Unity, Interaction, Space

Giovanna Strada studied industrial design in Milan and dedicates her research to the intersection of design and concrete art. Geometry and perception form the cornerstones of her sculptural language: from a basic structure emerge similar yet distinct units that invite the viewer to compare them.

André Van Lier

The artist, designer, and architect André van Lier is a representative of Concrete Art, also known as Reduction Art. After exploring the circle and the square, he turned his attention to the ellipse. The contour and axes of this figure are adapted repetitively and rhythmically according to the strict principles of Constructivist art, while the rounded forms and monochromatic colors convey emotion and vibrancy.

Guy de Lussigny - Côte à côte, les années 1950 - 1970

The exhibition “Guy de Lussigny, Side by Side, the 1950s–1970s” illuminates two formative decades in the artist's work, characterized by a decisive development of his visual language. Through a selection of paintings and drawings, the exhibition illustrates the shift from structured figuration to radical geometric abstraction.

The square increasingly emerges as the fundamental form of his work and is explored in diverse compositions where strength, rhythm, and balance structure the pictorial space. Simultaneously, color breaks free from its descriptive function and becomes an independent language, conveying tension and vibrancy. The works presented side by side reveal the coherence and continuity of a sophisticated exploration and establish Guy de Lussigny as one of the leading figures of geometric abstraction in the second half of the 20th century.
