(*) Volker Bussmann (Waldshut, Germany, 1945) is a German visual artist, printer, and publisher, renowned for his contributions to Concrete Art, geometric abstraction, and the study of visual perception in the second half of the 20th century.
Between 1965 and 1970 he pursued higher art studies in Frankfurt. In 1968 he complemented his theoretical profile with research stays at the prestigious Courtauld Institute of Art and the Warburg Institute in London.
In 1969 he founded his own laboratory and silkscreen workshop in Germany. The absolute control of this process allowed him to develop a graphic oeuvre of impeccable craftsmanship, characterized by raster patterns and chromatic gradients of mathematical precision.
During the 1970s he dedicated himself to Optical Art (Op Art). Through the use of concentric lines, luminous gradations, and mirror structures, he explored how the human eye processes volume and depth on two-dimensional supports. From 1973 he participated in notable graphic editions in Europe and the United States.
In 1976 he was named a member of 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 shapes.
His career stands out for an exceptional integration of scientific rigor, mastery of artisanal printmaking, and the currents of German geometric avant-garde.
