Wolfgang Lettl ~ Surrealist painter

Wolfgang Lettl [1919-2008] was a surrealist painter who was born in Augsburg, Germany. Success with his freelance art led him to develop his surrealism, and he participated in the 1963 Grosse Kunstausstellung München - the "Grand Art Exhibition Munich", becoming a member of the Neue Münchener Künstlergenossenschaft - "New Munich Artist Cooperative Society". One-man shows in Germany and abroad followed. In addition to his surrealism, the landscapes around his second residence in Puglia, Italy, inspired him to sometimes paint in an impressionistic style. In 1992, on the occasion of a retrospective exhibition at the Toskan Hall of Columns, he offered his paintings to the city of Augsburg on permanent loan. After the opening of the "Lettl Atrium - Museum for Surreal Art" in Augsburg in 1993, Lettl has concentrated on experiments in other media (including film) as well as continuing his painting. A major retrospective exhibition was held in Augsburg in 2000.

Ken Hamilton, 1956

Born in Nigeria, West Africa, Irish painter Ken Hamilton returned to Ireland at the age of eleven where he eventually went to Art College in Belfast.

Seeking to learn about the science of art, Hamilton spent a lot of time researching and experimenting in order to learn as no one else had done it before.

On the contrast to other painters, Hamilton’s works did not so much portray his own emotions; instead they revealed the world we live in today and what we know about our world today.

Rejecting the trends of so-called contemporary art, he has sought to restore some of the ancient values of painting now discarded by so many.

Maggie Vandewalle

Maggie Vandewalle was born and raised in Iowa City, Iowa. She received an art scholarship to the University of Iowa in 1981, where she worked towards a BFA in printmaking under Virginia Myers. After school she turned to painting, in part due to the cost of printmaking equipment, yet also to fulfill a desire for more immediate results. “I discovered that much as I loved working with copper and etching materials, the steps involved with creating a finished piece were taking a toll on my impatient nature”.
