Werner Berges


The works of Werner Berges are characterized by outlines, structure and color. Not only the technique, but also the aesthetics of screen printing reflect the Pop Art of the 1960s, of which Berges was a prominent German representative. His silhouettes of women are taken from the media and advertising, following the spirit of the time.
