Born in Königsthal from 1969 to 1973 he studied chemistry at the Martin Luther University in Halle (Saale) . From 1973 to 1976 he worked as a project engineer.

Influenced by the Neo Figuraist artists of the Junge Wilde painters. In 1978, the Junge Wilde painting style arose in the German-speaking world in opposition to established avant garde, minimal art and conceptual art. It was linked to the similar Transavanguardia movement in Italy, USA (neo-expressionism) and France (Figuration Libre). The Junge Wilde painted their expressive paintings in bright, intense colors and with quick, broad brushstrokes very much influenced by Professor at the Academy of Art in Berlin, Karl Horst Hödicke (b:1938).

John Pearson (American born 1940) "Study for Circus" 1985 Acrylic on canvas painting Hand signed verso, hangs from corner of canvas. Provenance: The New Gallery of Contemporary Art, Cleveland, Ohio. Bearing label verso: Dimensions: 19 x 19 in (it hangs in diamond shape which measures point to point 26.87 X 26.87 inches) Red, White, Blue, and Yellow abstract geometric painting. Circle and ellipse. John Pearson (British, 1940-was born in Yorkshire, England, and studied at the Harrogate School of Art, Yorkshire (National Diploma of Design, 1960), the Royal Academy Schools, London (Certificate, R.A.S 1963), the Akademie der Bildenden Kunst, Munich (1963–64, research fellow), and Northern Illinois University (M.F.A. 1966). He is known for hard edged, mod abstract oil painting on shaped canvas in geometric, curvilinear forms. For many years, Pearson has made paintings and low-relief sculpture, predominantly wall pieces, which use color, form, and various degrees of abstraction to modify the space of entire rooms. With work exhibited nationally and internationally in both solo and group shows, Pearson has also been sought for many site-specific commissions, both public and private. These are typically highly abstract, simplified, and nuanced; they’re often witty, too. Pearson early on became a devotee of the Dutch artist Piet Mondrian, a chief proponent of De Stijl (The Style), Pearson’s style has evolved from intense system-based abstract compositions to one more attuned to the spiritual influences of the natural environment. Pearson’s early style reflects the European reaction to expressionism and artistic emotionalism in the form of a rational, systematic approach to art (often called the “New Tendency”). An heir to the tenets of Constructivism, he investigated color within a predetermined linear or grid system that eliminated options after the artist’s initial choices. He was drawn to Cleveland in 1970 because of its reputation at the time for having a rich environment for abstract art, as two of the chief proponents of Kinetic art and op art, Julian Stanczak and Richard Anuszkeiwicz, worked there. Students of Josef Albers, the grand master of color theory who taught these two primary practitioners of the “Color Function” school of abstract art at Yale in the 1950s. Pearson’s early style reflects a European reaction to abstract expressionism that manifested itself in a rational, systematic approach to art.Since his emergence in 1960s London, John Pearson has been using mathematical systems and computer programs to generate hard-edged geometric compositions. His work is of the same genre as the artists of the Denise Rene Gallery in Paris, similar to Vasarely, Agam, Cruz Diez and Soto. His most recent work, with its circles and ellipses superimposed on patterns of wavy lines, brings a more easygoing approach to his particular breed of rule-based art. Pearson has received grants from the National Endowment for the Arts and the Canada Council, and has had solo exhibitions at institutions including the Akron Art Museum, the Cleveland Center for Contemporary Art, and the Museum of Modern Art in Rijeka, Croatia. Pearson was born in Yorkshire (Britain) and studied art at the Royal Academy Schools in London, did advanced work in Munich (Germany), and earned the M.F.A. (Master of Fine Arts) degree from Northern Illinois University. Before arriving to teach at Oberlin College in 1972, he taught at the University of New Mexico, the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design, and the Cleveland Institute of Art. At Oberlin, he served as the Young-Hunter Professor of Art. John retired from teaching in 2014 but still occasionally works with students and lives in Oberlin where he educated several generations of appreciative liberal arts students. He also served as department chair and held the Young-Hunter endowed professorship from 1987 onward, until his retirement. Pearson travelled widely to paint, exhibit, and teach and received support from the Ohio Arts Council and the National Endowment for the Arts, among others. His career received recognition via the Cleveland Arts Prize in 1975, while most recently he was recognized as a Special Honoree by the same organization. His paintings and sculptures are held in many public and private collections in the U.S., Canada, Europe, China, and Japan, as well as by museums, such as the Allen Art Museum (Oberlin), the Cleveland Museum of Art, the Museum of Modern Art (New York), and the Art Institute of Chicago.

Mercy Moyo (Zimbabwe, 1980-) Portrait of Standing Figure Mixed Media Collage Assemblage collage with charcoal and paint. Hand signed l.r. Mercy Moyo. Dimensions: 49 1/2 x 35 1/4 in. Framed: 52 1/4 x 38 1/4 in. Mercy Moyo is a nationally exhibited artist from Harare, Zimbabwe. Moyo’s creative journey is influenced by her childhood memories of time spent collecting barks from trees to use for dying fibers and mixing colors for weaving baskets with her grandmother. As they’d work, her grandmother would tell fairytales, inspiring Moyo to weave storytelling into her artwork. Moyo uses visual art to tell the story of her life, of contemporary Southern African life. Her artwork depicts ordinary people in everyday environments, exploring human behavior and its context in expressive lines, vibrant colors, and traditional African motifs. Moyo's artistic practice lends its energy to her exploration of gender, coloniality, wealth disparities, political conflict, and resource allocation. Moyo explores gender, identity, coloniality, wealth disparities and resource allocation. Although her endless search into human behavior and its context is energetically expressed in vibrant colors and traditional African motifs, her paintings also call into question the wide range of her experiences living and working in countries affected by harsh social and political conflicts her use of iconic imagery of contemporary Zimbabwean women and children. This piece explores the role of women as a source of stability and the keeper of cultural inheritance. Her work interprets the beauty of real African women in traditional garments, long skirts, heads nicely wrapped, and humility in check. Moyo studied at the Peter Birch School of Art and Design, graduated from the National Gallery School of Visual Arts and Design in 2003, and obtained a diploma in Photography from the ZIPAC (Zimbabwe Institute of Photographers) in 2010. She was included in the exhibition Rwendo Rwechokwadi: A Journey of Truth Christopher Moller Gallery, Cape Town, South Africa. "Rwendo Rwechokwadi" brings together an exceptional group of artists whose works invite us to embark on a profound exploration of authenticity, resilience, and identity.
