(*) Volker Bussmann (Waldshut, Germany, 1945) is a German visual artist, printer, and publisher, recognized for his contributions to Concrete Art, geometric abstraction, and investigations into visual perception in the late 20th century.
Between 1965 and 1970 he pursued higher art studies in Frankfurt. In 1968 he supplemented his theoretical profile with research residencies at the prestigious Courtauld Institute of Art and Warburg Institute in London.
In 1969 he founded his own laboratory and screen-print workshop in Germany. Absolute control of this process allowed him to develop a graphic work of impeccable craftsmanship, characterized by raster patterns and mathematically precise color gradations.
During the 1970s he devoted himself to Op Art. By using concentric lines, luminous gradations, and mirror structures, he explored how the human eye processes volume and depth on two-dimensional supports. Since 1973 he participated in notable collaborative graphic editions in Europe and the United States.
In 1976 he was named to the board of the Frankfurter Kunstverein (Frankfurt Art Association). In the 1970s and 1980s he patented an additive color mixing system and experimented with historical techniques such as collotype applied to botanical and anatomical forms.
His career stands out for an exceptional integration of scientific rigor, mastery of artisanal printmaking, and the currents of German geometric avant-garde.
