de Kooning. The publication pays tribute to one of the most
important witnesses of abstract-expressive painting in Germany.

Günter Fruhtrunk.Characteristic of his painting is the free
association of representational and abstractelements, the energy of
disorder and the delight in chance. This multi-faceted volume shows
Sturm’s impressive and diverse creative works from 1957–2007.
