German abstraction in T.O.

Lausberg Contemporary is a Duesseldorf-based art gallery with international showrooms, one being here in Toronto.  It is one of my most visited galleries because of its frequent showing of contemporary German abstraction.  Jürgen Paas is probably my most favourite artist showing at Lausberg.  I have seen his works both in Duesseldorf and in Toronto.  I even got a chance to visit his studio in Essen last year.  I love the mathematical clarity and the industrial precision of his minimalist works.

My other favourite artists at Lausberg include Michael Laube, Achim Zeman and Harald Schmitz-Schmelzer.
